Compress JPG, PNG and WebP images for free to reduce file size while keeping them looking great. Everything runs entirely in your browser — your files are never uploaded to a server, so your data stays private on your device.

Smaller images, faster everything

Large image files slow down the things they’re used in — a website loads sluggishly, an email with several attachments bounces back as too big, a gallery upload times out, or a document swells to several times the size it needs to be. Compressing images before you use them keeps pages snappy, attachments within size limits, and storage from filling up with files far larger than the situation calls for.

Balancing size against quality

Modern compression can often shrink a photo by half or more with a difference that’s very hard to spot at normal viewing sizes — most of the data in an image is redundant detail the eye barely registers. The quality slider lets you find the right balance for your situation: push harder for a quick social post or thumbnail, and ease off when the image will be viewed large or printed. As a side effect, re-encoding also strips the embedded metadata (camera model, location, timestamps) that original photo files often carry — handy if you’d rather not share that information along with the picture.

Frequently asked questions

How much smaller can images get?

Often 50–80% smaller with little visible difference, depending on the image and quality setting.

Does compression remove EXIF data?

Re-encoding typically drops embedded metadata, which is good for privacy and size.

Are my photos uploaded?

No — compression happens locally on your device.
