An image compressor is for the photo that a form rejects because it is over 1 MB. This one redraws the picture as a JPEG in the browser and shows you the new file.

What you give up

JPEG compression removes detail. A portrait can lose a little texture and still look fine. A screenshot of a bank form, with small type, goes soft if you push it too far. Keep the original until the compressed file still reads clearly at the size you will publish.

Steps

  1. Open imagecompressor.beastbrowser.com.
  2. Choose the JPG, PNG, or WebP.
  3. Download the smaller file and compare the kilobytes with the original.

If the picture is the wrong pixel size rather than the wrong weight, use the image resizer. iPhone HEIC files should go through HEIC to JPG first.
