Frequently asked questions
What quality number should I use?
A value around 70 keeps images looking good while cutting the size noticeably. Lower it for smaller files.
What format is the result?
The compressed image is saved as a JPG file.
What happens to transparent PNG images?
JPG does not support transparency, so transparent areas may look different in the result. Keep the original PNG if you need transparency.
Is Compress Image free to use?
Yes. Compress Image is free, with no sign-up and no usage limits.
Are my files uploaded to your servers?
No. The work is done in your browser on your own device, so nothing you use here is sent to our servers.
