Image Compressor
Reduce image file size while preserving quality.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much can I reduce the file size? ▾
Typical savings are 40-80% depending on the original format and quality setting. A 5MB iPhone photo can often be compressed to under 500KB at quality 80% with no visible difference. The tool shows original and compressed sizes in real time so you can find the right balance.
What quality setting should I use? ▾
For web use, 75-85% works great. Most people can't tell the difference from the original, and you save a lot on file size. Below 50%, artifacts start showing, especially on gradients and skin tones. For archival, stay above 90%.
Which format produces the smallest files? ▾
WebP is typically 25-34% smaller than JPG at the same quality, and up to 26% smaller than PNG. If you need the absolute smallest file and your platform supports it, choose WebP. JPG is the safest choice for universal compatibility.
Does compression change image dimensions? ▾
No. Width and height stay exactly the same. Compression only changes how the pixel data is encoded. It discards subtle information that the human eye is least likely to notice.
