Compress Image

Compress JPG, PNG, and WebP images in one batch using a target file size or quality setting.

How to compress an image

Choose images, set a quality or file-size target, and download the compressed results.

  1. 1

    Choose your images

    Select one or more JPG, PNG, or WebP files from your device.

  2. 2

    Set the compression goal

    Choose the output format and quality, or enter a target file size when a strict limit matters.

  3. 3

    Compress and download

    Process the images locally, compare the results, and download the completed files.

Make image files easier to deliver

Balance visual quality and download weight for websites, email, and product interfaces.

01

Choose quality or target a file size

Adjust format and quality for predictable compression, or set a maximum size when an upload form, workflow, or delivery channel enforces a limit.

  • Keep the source format or choose JPG, PNG, or WebP
  • Control visual quality with a clear percentage setting
  • Use Target File Size when a hard limit must be met

Reduce weight on content-heavy websites

Prepare hero photography, article images, and gallery assets that load faster without sending full camera files to visitors.

  • Compress large editorial and landing-page images
  • Keep visible detail appropriate for the display size
  • Create lighter assets before publishing to a CMS

Prepare images for email and sharing

Reduce newsletters, campaign graphics, proofs, and reference images before sending them through channels with attachment or message-size limits.

  • Create smaller newsletter and campaign graphics
  • Fit attachments within practical delivery limits
  • Keep shared previews clear enough for review

Optimize assets for apps and dashboards

Make screenshots, thumbnails, reports, and interface imagery lighter for product screens where many assets can appear together.

  • Reduce screenshots used in help centers and releases
  • Prepare lighter thumbnails for lists and dashboards
  • Balance repeated asset quality with download weight

Image compression FAQs

Answers about quality, target size, formats, dimensions, transparency, and practical compression choices.

What does image compression change?
Compression reduces the data used to store an image by encoding it more efficiently, lowering quality, changing format, or sometimes reducing dimensions. The visual result and file-size savings depend on the source content.
How should I choose the quality setting?
Start with a moderately high value, inspect faces, text, gradients, and detailed edges, then lower it only if more savings are needed. The same percentage can look different across photographs, graphics, and formats.
Can I compress to a specific file size?
Yes. Enter a Target File Size and the tool will try progressively stronger settings to approach it. Some limits cannot be reached without visible quality loss or smaller dimensions, especially for complex or transparent images.
Does compression change pixel dimensions?
Normal quality compression keeps the current width and height. When a strict target size cannot be reached through encoding alone, the target-size workflow may reduce dimensions to continue lowering the file weight.
Which output format should I choose?
Keep the original when compatibility and appearance already fit the destination. JPG is efficient for photos, PNG protects transparency and sharp edges, and WebP often offers a useful balance for modern web delivery.
Why do some images compress more than others?
Smooth backgrounds and repeated colors are easier to encode than noise, foliage, fine texture, or complex transparency. The starting format and previous compression also affect how much additional file-size reduction is possible.
Can I compress several image formats together?
Yes. The general image compressor accepts JPG, PNG, and WebP files in one selection. You can keep their original formats or choose a shared supported output, then review individual results before downloading.
Will compressed images still look sharp online?
They can when source dimensions match the display size and quality is not pushed too low. Preview text, faces, gradients, and edges at their intended size, because artifacts become more noticeable around high-contrast detail.
