Quick steps
How to compress an image
Try a quality setting
Start at 75%, then raise or lower it depending on the detail you need.

Check the preview and actual size before downloading the JPEG.

Quality is a setting.

Find your balance
Keep the detail.
Lose the extra weight.
A product label, a face, a smooth sky: different images need different care. Start at 75% quality and compare the result with your original before saving.
The slider controls JPEG quality. It does not mean “75% smaller.” Your result shows the actual bytes saved, so you can decide based on the file you get.

A smaller file and smaller dimensions are different things.

The right size for
your next upload.
This compressor keeps your original pixel dimensions. For a blog or email attachment, the quality slider gives you control over the trade-off between detail and weight.
When a form requires a strict maximum, use a size-targeted tool. If the photo is wider than you need, resize it first instead of discarding more detail.

Open. Compress.
Carry on.
Your selected image is processed in your browser. You can use the tool without creating an account, and no watermark is added to your exported image.
Keep the original too. A PNG logo may already be lighter than a new JPEG, and transparent areas become white in this tool. We flag larger exports so you can choose the useful file.

Keep fine detail
An 85% JPEG quality example keeps a generous detail budget. Compare hair, leaves and fine edges before using the export.

Frequently asked questions
Why did my image get bigger?
It may already be well compressed. A simple PNG or a small, optimised JPEG can be smaller than a fresh JPEG export. Keep the original if the new file is not useful.
What happens to transparent areas?
They become white because JPEG does not support transparency. Keep PNG or WebP when you need a transparent background.
Which setting should I use?
Try the default, then check the parts that matter: faces, small text and sharp edges. Raise the quality if those areas look rough.
Can I choose an exact final file size here?
The quality slider does not guarantee a KB size. Use the custom-size reducer when the destination has a strict maximum.
Can I compress a logo the same way as a photo?
You can try it, but inspect fine edges and small text carefully. PNG or WebP may be a better choice when sharp graphics or transparency matter.
