Compress Images Free

No. All compression uses the HTML5 Canvas API running entirely in your browser tab. Your images never leave your device — the compressed version is created locally and downloaded directly to you.

Instead of choosing a quality number, you set a file size limit (e.g. Email-safe < 1 MB, Web < 200 KB). The tool automatically runs a binary search across quality values to find the highest quality that still fits under your target — so you get maximum clarity within the constraint.

WebP uses a more modern compression algorithm than JPEG. At the same visual quality, a WebP file is typically 25–35% smaller than the equivalent JPEG. The badge shows the exact saving for your specific image before you commit to switching.

Yes. Because compression works by drawing the image to an HTML5 Canvas and re-encoding it, all EXIF metadata — GPS coordinates, camera serial number, timestamps — is stripped automatically. This is a privacy benefit on top of the size reduction.

Yes. Drop more than one image to switch to bulk mode. The tool processes up to four files simultaneously and shows a results table with before/after sizes for each file. Download the full batch as a single ZIP.

If even the lowest quality setting can't hit your target (e.g. you ask for 10 KB from a 5 MB photo), the tool compresses to the minimum quality it can and returns that result. The stats row will show how small it actually got.
