Frequently asked questions

How do I compress an image without losing too much quality?

Start with a quality setting around 75 to 85 for JPEG or WebP, then compare the preview and file size. For very large images, resizing the longest side often reduces file size more than quality changes alone.

Which format gives the smallest image file?

WebP often produces smaller files than JPG or PNG for web use. PNG is lossless and can stay larger, especially for photos.

Does this image compressor upload my file?

No server upload is required for compression. The image is processed in your browser, which is faster and cheaper to operate.

Runs entirely in your browser

No upload to a server. Compression happens locally using the Canvas API.

Adjustable quality & size

Tune the quality slider and optionally cap the longest side to shrink files further.
