Image Compressor

Reduce image file size with adjustable quality. Operates 100% locally in your browser for absolute security.

How to Use Image Compressor

  1. Select or drag-and-drop your image (JPEG, PNG, or WebP) into the upload area.
  2. Adjust the 'Compression Quality' slider. A lower value yields a smaller file size but reduces quality, while a higher value keeps details crisp.
  3. Observe the live original vs. compressed file sizes and preview the image quality immediately.
  4. Review the savings percentage (e.g., 'Reduced by 60%').
  5. Click the 'Download Compressed Image' button to save the optimized file.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does client-side compression work?

When you load an image, your browser draws it onto an in-memory HTML5 canvas element. The canvas API then exports the image pixels at your custom quality rating (e.g. 0.8) to retrieve a compressed version, completely within your browser.

Will my images be uploaded to any server?

No, absolutely not. All processes happen locally on your computer/phone. This ensures zero data leaks and maximum security.

Can I compress transparent PNG files?

Yes. PNG files are lossless and do not support quality loss natively without dithering. To give you high file-size savings, our compressor converts transparent PNGs into compressed JPEGs on a solid background, or compresses them as WebP if supported.
