Compress Image

Compress Image reduces a photo or screenshot in your browser and downloads a JPG. PNG and WebP files are converted to JPEG, so transparent areas are flattened. Check the before-and-after size on the page before you use the file.

To compress image, upload your file, let your browser process it locally, and download the result in a few clicks.

Three simple steps

The download is a JPG. PNG and WebP files are converted to JPEG, so transparency is flattened. Compare the before and after size: a file that is already a small JPEG may change very little.

What happens to your file?

This tool processes files locally in your browser. Confiles does not upload or store your file, and you get the result right away without creating an account.

When to use it

Use this when a photo or screenshot is too large for email, a form, or a chat, and a JPG is an acceptable download.

Limitations

The result is always a JPG, so PNG transparency is flattened. A file that is already a small JPEG may shrink very little. Preview the before-and-after size before you send it.

Examples

  • Turn a phone photo into a smaller JPG for email.
  • Flatten a PNG screenshot when transparency does not matter.
  • Make a WebP photo easier to attach as a JPG.

FAQ

Will the image always get smaller?

Photos usually do. A file that is already a small JPEG may change very little. The download is always a JPG, even if you started with PNG or WebP.

What happens to PNG transparency?

It is flattened. Use Convert Image and choose PNG if you need to keep a transparent background.

Is the image uploaded?

No. Compression runs in your browser. Confiles does not upload or store the image.
