Image Compressor

This image compressor reduces file size without uploading your pictures anywhere. Choose a quality level, optionally cap the width and pick an output format; the compressed size and saving appear before you download.

How to use this tool

  1. 1 Choose or drop a JPEG, PNG, WebP or GIF image.
  2. 2 Pick an output format and adjust the quality slider.
  3. 3 Optionally set a maximum width to resize while compressing.
  4. 4 Download the result once the new size and saving look right.

Formula and calculation logic

Quality

Compressed bytes = encoder(image, quality)

Quality controls how much detail the encoder keeps. Lower values produce smaller files with more visible artifacts; 70–85 is a good starting range for photographs.

Resizing

Target width = min(original width, maximum width)

When a maximum width is set, the image is scaled proportionally before encoding. Fewer pixels usually reduce the file size more than a small quality change.

Worked example

A large photo

A 4000-pixel-wide photo is too heavy for a web page.

  1. Set maximum width to 1600 px
  2. Quality 80, format WebP
  3. Download the smaller file

The result keeps the aspect ratio and is usually a fraction of the original size, with little visible difference at screen sizes.

A screenshot

A PNG screenshot contains flat colours and text.

  1. Keep PNG to preserve sharp text
  2. Reduce the maximum width if it is oversized
  3. Compare the output size

PNG ignores the quality slider, but resizing and cropping reduce its size. For photos, WebP or JPEG is usually smaller.

Edge cases and accuracy

PNG and quality

PNG is lossless, so the quality slider does not apply. Choose WebP or JPEG when you need substantial savings on photographic images.

Animated GIFs

Only the first frame is processed. For animation, use a dedicated GIF tool or keep the original file.

Very small images

Re-encoding a tiny image can make it larger. Compare the result size and keep the original if compression does not help.

Frequently asked questions

Is my image uploaded? +

No. Decoding, resizing and encoding happen in your browser; the file never leaves your device.

Which format should I choose? +

WebP usually gives the best size for photos and supports transparency. JPEG is universally compatible. PNG is best for screenshots, diagrams and sharp text.

Why did my PNG get larger? +

Re-encoding can change compression settings. If the result is larger, keep the original or convert to WebP/JPEG when transparency is not required.

Does compression remove metadata? +

Canvas re-encoding produces a new image without most metadata, including EXIF. That is useful for privacy but removes camera details.

What is the maximum file size? +

Images up to 20 MB are accepted. Larger files may exceed browser memory limits, especially on mobile devices.
