How to compress an image to a smaller file size
Compress images when a website, form, email or application requires a smaller JPG, PNG, WebP or supported image file.
- Choose the image you want to reduce.
- Select the available quality or target-size option.
- Compress the image.
- Download and reopen the result.
- Check text, faces and fine detail before uploading or sharing it.
A practical example
A large phone photo can be reduced before uploading it to a form that accepts only a small image attachment.
Common questions
Why does image compression reduce quality?
Smaller files often require removing image detail or increasing lossy compression, especially when the target is much smaller than the source.
Should I use the smallest possible file?
Use the largest size the destination allows when visual clarity matters.
What is EXIF metadata?
EXIF can contain camera details, timestamps and sometimes location information. Remove it when that information is unnecessary or sensitive.
Can I compress several image formats?
The image tools support common image formats including JPG, PNG, WebP and supported HEIC workflows.
