Image compression reduces a photo's file size by optimizing how it's encoded, while keeping the visual dimensions and, as much as possible, the visible quality the same. This is the go-to fix for images that are too large to email, slow to load on a website, or eating up storage - especially photos straight from a modern phone camera, which are often several megabytes each.

Frequently asked questions

At moderate compression levels, the difference is usually hard to notice by eye while the file gets meaningfully smaller. Very aggressive compression trades more visible quality for a smaller file - the tool lets you balance the two.

It varies by image, but photos often shrink 50-80% with minimal visible quality loss, especially images with a lot of fine detail/noise that compress less efficiently in their original form.

Use the "Resize Image to KB" tool instead, which lets you target a precise file size rather than a general compression level.
