Shrink heavy photos down to size

Use this free image compressor to reduce image size by re-encoding each picture at the quality you pick and scaling it to fit — make an image smaller for the web, or compress photos for email when they're too big to attach. Drop in one shot or a whole batch, compress JPEG, PNG and WebP files online free, and reduce the image file size online with the before-and-after saving shown for every photo.

  • Bulk-compress many images at once, then download them as a zip
  • Choose a quality level — smaller file or higher fidelity
  • See the before and after size for every image
  • 100% client-side — your images never leave your device

Three quick steps

Make a heavy photo light in seconds

Trimming an image down to size is a drag-and-drop job, with a clear before-and-after for every file.

  1. 1

    Drop in one image or a whole batch of JPG, PNG and WebP files — they're read straight in your browser, ready to compress.

  2. 2

    Pick a preset, or open Advanced to fine-tune quality, max resolution and output format per file — the estimated size updates live as you adjust.

  3. 3

    Press Compress (one file or the whole batch), then download the smaller images individually or as a single zip.

Common needs

When a photo is simply too big

Oversized images slow pages down and bounce off attachment limits — these are the moments shrinking them pays off.

  • Getting product or gallery photos light enough to load fast on a web page.

  • Squeezing a batch of images under an email or upload size limit.

  • Lightening phone photos before posting or sending them on.

Quick answers

Image compression questions, covered

How do I compress an image?
Drop in a JPG, PNG or WebP (or a whole batch), pick a quality level and each image is re-encoded and scaled to a smaller file — then download them one by one or as a single zip.
Will compressing reduce image quality?
Compression is lossy, so a smaller file means some loss of detail. Choose a higher quality level to keep images crisp, or a smaller one for the tiniest file — you can see the before and after size before downloading.
Can I compress several images at once?
Yes. Add as many images as you like and each is compressed automatically — then grab the whole batch as one zip.
Are my images uploaded to a server?
No. Compression runs entirely in your browser, so your photos never leave your device.

Local only

Photos are compressed on your machine

Every image is re-encoded inside your browser, so the pictures you're shrinking are never uploaded — handy when the bulky photos you need to send happen to be private ones.
