Supported formats

JPEG, PNG, WebP, HEIC, HEIF, and GIF. Images are automatically optimized for the best file size while keeping acceptable quality.

When you need to shrink an image

You took a photo, tried to upload it, and the website said the file is too large. Maybe it was a job application portal, a government form, or an email attachment that bounced back. Most sites have strict file-size limits — often 1 MB, 2 MB, or 5 MB — and modern phone cameras easily produce images ten times that size.

This tool lets you pick exactly where the image is going and optimizes it for that purpose. Choose the "email" preset to hit common attachment limits, or the "ID / form" preset for the stricter requirements of official portals. The file is compressed right here, keeping a quality level that still looks sharp on screen.

Your image never leaves your session. Processing happens on the server and all files are automatically deleted within 24 hours. No account, no signup, no stored data — just a smaller image ready to upload.

Frequently asked questions

What is the maximum file size I can upload?
You can upload images up to 25 MB. This covers photos from virtually any smartphone or digital camera, including high-resolution shots.
Will my image lose quality?
The tool reduces file size by adjusting compression and dimensions. For most uses — email, web forms, job applications — the difference is not visible to the eye. The preset you choose balances size and quality for the intended purpose.
What image formats are supported?
JPEG, PNG, WebP, HEIC, HEIF, and GIF. HEIC is the default format on recent iPhones, so you can upload photos straight from your phone without converting first.
Is my image stored on your servers?
Files are kept only long enough for you to download the result. Everything is automatically deleted within 24 hours. We do not store, share, or analyze your images.
Can I use this on my phone?
Yes. The tool works in any modern browser on iOS, Android, or desktop. No app installation required — just open the page and upload your image.
