How to compress JPG images

  1. Add your JPG photos (up to 50 at once).
  2. Pick the quality level and, if you like, a maximum size.
  3. Download your compressed JPGs.

A photo taken on a phone often weighs 3 to 8 MB. That is too much for many online portals (job applications, registrations, official forms) that cap attachments at 1 or 2 MB, and it slows down websites and online shops. Compressing a JPG cuts its size sharply while the picture looks the same on screen.

There are three levels: High quality for a modest, practically invisible saving, Recommended for the best balance, and Smallest file when size comes first. To save even more, limit the longest side to 1920 px (Full HD) or 1280 px: a 4000-pixel photo is rarely needed on a screen. You can also save as WEBP, which is often smaller still.

If an image is already well compressed, the original is kept so it never gets bigger. Camera details and GPS location are removed, which protects your privacy. Files are deleted automatically after 30 minutes.
