Compress images without losing visible quality
Large photos slow down websites, fill up phone storage, and bounce off email attachment limits. This free image compressor shrinks JPG, PNG, WebP and AVIF files right inside your browser — no upload, no account, no waiting in a queue. Because the work happens on your own device using your browser’s built-in image engines, your pictures stay completely private while still getting dramatically smaller.
How to compress an image
- Add your images Drag your photos onto the box above, or click to choose them from your device.
- Set the quality Drag the Quality slider. Around 70–80 keeps photos looking crisp while cutting most of the file size.
- Optionally resize Set a maximum width or height to downscale oversized images — handy for web pages and email.
- Compress the files Click Process files and watch the progress bar as each image is compressed.
- Download the results Download each result, or click Download all (.zip) to save the whole batch at once.
When to use image compression
- Faster websites: smaller images improve page-load speed and Core Web Vitals, which helps both visitors and search rankings.
- Email & messaging: get under the typical 25 MB attachment limit without cropping anything out.
- Storage & backups: reclaim space on your phone, laptop or cloud drive by trimming years of oversized photos.
- Marketplaces & forms: meet strict per-file size limits on listing sites, job applications and government portals.
Quality, resizing and the never-bigger guarantee
Lower quality values trade a little visual detail for a much smaller file; the sweet spot for most photographs is 60–80. PNG files are compressed losslessly, so the quality slider does not affect them. If you also set a maximum width or height, the image is scaled down with a high-quality filter while its aspect ratio is preserved, and small images are left untouched when “Don’t enlarge” is ticked. When you keep the original format and skip resizing, the compressor will never hand back a file larger than the one you started with — if re-encoding would not save space, you simply get your original bytes.
