About Compress Image

Image compression reduces file size so photos upload faster and fit marketplace or form limits—without cropping the picture. Set a quality level or aim for a target size in KB/MB, preview, then download.

Use it for product photos, portfolio shots, WhatsApp-bound images, and web hero images that feel too heavy.

Compress Image reduces bytes so uploads and messages succeed. It should preserve the full frame unless you also crop or resize.

Choose compression when the photo is already the right crop and roughly the right dimensions. If a portal demands a maximum width in pixels, resize first. If it demands WebP, convert after you like the quality.

Practical tips

Start around 70–85% quality for photos; go lower only if size still fails.
Convert to WebP after compression when the destination supports it.
Do not compress the same file five times—quality stacks down.
Keep a master original for print; ship compressed copies for web.
Start from the original, not a twice-compressed download.
Zoom on faces and text before you accept a small file size.
Read the compress vs resize vs convert guide when the error message is unclear.

When not to use this approach

Do not repeatedly compress the same export—quality stacks downward.
