Lower = smaller file. 80% looks identical to most eyes.

How to compress images

  1. Add your images. Drop one or many photos onto the zone — JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF or BMP all work.
  2. Set quality and format. 80% JPG is the classic web sweet spot; switch to WebP for even smaller files at the same quality.
  3. Press "Compress images". Your browser re-encodes each photo locally with the canvas API.
  4. Compare and download. Every result shows the original size, the new size and the percentage saved — download the ones you want.

Compress Image FAQ

What quality setting should I use?

80% is the sweet spot for photos on the web — visibly identical to the original at a fraction of the size. Use 60–70% for thumbnails and previews, 90%+ when quality matters most.

JPG or WebP — which is better?

WebP gives smaller files at the same quality and is supported by all modern browsers. Choose JPG for maximum compatibility with older software.

Why didn't PNG shrink?

PNG is a lossless format, so the quality slider doesn't apply to it — PNG output is always full quality. For smaller files, compress to JPG or WebP instead.

Are my photos uploaded anywhere?

No. Compression runs entirely in your browser using the canvas API. Your photos never leave your device.
