Compress Image to a Target Size
Drop a photo and it's auto-compressed to fit common form limits — right in your browser. Adjust the target only if you need to.
or drop files (JPG · PNG · WEBP · GIF · BMP & more)
Compressing an image means making its file smaller — measured in KB or MB — without changing what it shows. Online forms cap the size (often 20, 50, 100 or 200 KB), and phone photos are far bigger than that. This tool shrinks a JPG, PNG or WebP to the exact size you need, right in your browser, so the photo never leaves your device.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will compressing lower the quality?
A little, but the tool keeps the best quality that still fits the target size. For form photos the difference is usually invisible. If it looks soft, open “Adjust manually” and raise the target size.
Is my image uploaded to a server?
No. Image compression runs entirely in your browser using the Canvas API. The file never leaves your device.
What’s the smallest size I can reach?
Very small — the tool will downscale the image if needed to hit tight limits like 20 KB. For extreme limits, resizing the dimensions first gives the cleanest result.
Which formats are supported?
JPG, PNG and WebP. Photos usually come out smallest as JPG.
