Compress images

Shrink photos for e-mail, forms or websites. Your images never leave your device.

How it works

  1. Pick your images

    Drop one or more images or choose them from your device. Nothing is uploaded.

  2. Pick a setting

    Choose a level. Balanced is best for most photos.

  3. Download

    One image downloads directly, several come in a single ZIP file.

What this tool does

A phone photo can weigh several megabytes, while application forms, e-mail and many websites want smaller files. This tool saves the image again to cut its size; the Balanced and Strong levels also scale very large photos down to a size you will not notice on screen.

JPG and WEBP stay in the same format. PNGs without transparency are saved as JPG, transparent PNGs as WEBP, which keeps the transparency. An image that is already small never grows; it is left as it is.
