Image Compressor

Large photos are slow to email, upload and load. This free image compressor shrinks a photo by re-saving it as a JPG at the quality you choose, right in your browser. Your image never leaves your device.

Processed in your browser. Nothing is uploaded. Max 15 MB.

How to use

  1. Choose an image from your device (up to 15 MB).
  2. Move the quality slider. Lower quality gives a smaller file.
  3. Click Process image, compare the before and after sizes, then download the result.

Frequently asked questions

Is my image uploaded anywhere?
No. The image is processed by your browser and is never sent to a server.
What format is the result?
The compressor saves a JPG. Transparent areas of PNG images become white.
Why is the file not much smaller?
Images that are already compressed, or very small, may not shrink much. Try a lower quality setting.
Is there a size limit?
Yes, 15 MB per image, to keep the tool fast on phones.
