Compress photo

Phone photos are often several megabytes. That is too much for an email attachment or a form with a size limit.

The tool saves the photo again with lower quality. The picture looks almost the same, the file is several times smaller.

1. Choose a photo.
2. Pick how strongly to shrink: strong, medium or light.
3. Download the lighter photo.

• The result is always a JPG. Transparency in PNG is replaced with white.
• If the photo is already light and cannot be made smaller, you get the original back.
• Strong shrinking can make fine details look blurry: compare before you send.

Is the photo uploaded anywhere?

No. It is processed in your browser and never leaves your device.

Does the photo get smaller in pixels?

No. The size in pixels stays the same, only the file weight changes. To change pixels use Resize photo.
