How do I compress an image?

Drop one or more images onto the page, pick a quality level, and the compressed versions are ready to download in seconds.

Does image compression reduce quality?

It does, but at quality 80 the difference is invisible to the eye for most photos while the file is roughly half the size. Use the before/after slider to verify before downloading.

Can I compress multiple images at once?

Yes. Drop a batch of files and they're all compressed together. You can download them individually or as a ZIP.

Which image formats are supported?

JPG, PNG and WebP. PNG transparency is preserved, and animated GIFs are passed through unchanged.

Will EXIF data be removed?

By default, EXIF (camera info, location) is stripped to reduce size and improve privacy. Toggle "Keep EXIF" to preserve it.

Is there a file-size limit?

No fixed limit. Compression happens on your device, so the practical cap is your device's memory.

Are my images uploaded?

No. Compression runs entirely in your browser — your images never leave your device.

How do I compress images for a website?

Aim for a quality of 75–80 and a max width of 1600 px for hero images, 800 px for thumbnails. Save as WebP for the smallest size.

Can I compress images on iPhone or Android?

Yes. Open the page in your phone's browser, pick the photos, and the compressed copies are saved straight to your downloads.

Is the image compressor free?

Yes — no signup, no watermark, no quality cap.
