What “reduce file size” means here

You are lowering how many bytes the image uses—usually by lossy compression or by switching to a more efficient format like WebP. This tool keeps previews honest so you see the trade-off.

  • Works entirely in your browser after the page loads
  • Switch formats when your destination allows WebP

Frequently asked questions

Is this image compressor free?
Yes, completely free. No account, no limits, no watermarks.
Are my images uploaded to a server?
No. Everything runs locally in your browser. Your files never leave your device.
Will compression reduce the quality?
Slightly, depending on your quality setting. At 80% quality the difference is usually not visible to the naked eye.
Which format should I use?
WebP gives the best size/quality ratio for most images. Use JPEG for photos and PNG when you need transparency.

Yes. Smaller images improve page load speed and Core Web Vitals, both of which influence Google rankings.
