Compress IMAGE
Compress JPG, PNG, SVG, and GIFs while saving space and maintaining quality.
EditImg's image compressor reduces JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP, and SVG files by up to 80% without noticeable quality loss. Simply upload your photos, set your target quality level or a maximum file size, and download the compressed results — all processing runs locally in your browser so your images never leave your device. Batch compression lets you shrink dozens of files at once and download them as a ZIP archive. Ideal for speeding up websites, reducing email attachment sizes, and saving storage space without sacrificing visual clarity.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does compressing an image reduce its quality?
It depends on the compression type. Lossy compression (used for JPG and WebP) does reduce some quality, but at the right settings the difference is invisible to the human eye. EditImg lets you set the quality level so you stay in control. Lossless compression for PNG and GIF preserves every pixel while still reducing file size.
How much can I reduce an image's file size?
Results vary by image and format, but most JPG and PNG files can be reduced by 40–80% without noticeable quality loss. Photos with lots of detail compress more efficiently than flat-color graphics. You can also set a target Max Size in MB to hit a specific file size goal.
Which image formats can I compress?
EditImg supports JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP, and SVG. You can upload a mix of formats in one batch and compress them all at once.
Are my images uploaded to a server when I compress them?
No. All compression happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your files never leave your device, so your images stay completely private.
Can I compress multiple images at the same time?
Yes. Just drop several files at once into the upload area. Each image is processed individually so you can download them separately or grab everything in a single ZIP archive.
What is the best image format for websites?
WebP offers the best compression-to-quality ratio for the web and is supported by all modern browsers. If you need wider compatibility, a well-compressed JPG is the next best choice for photos, while PNG works best for graphics with transparency.
How to compress image to 200kb without losing quality?
To hit a specific target like 200kb, use the 'Max File Size' setting in EditImg. Our algorithm intelligently adjusts the compression level to reach your target size while preserving as much visual detail as possible in your JPG or PNG.
Is it safe to compress private documents or ID photos online?
Yes, with EditImg it is 100% safe. Since all processing happens locally in your browser (client-side), your sensitive documents or private photos are never uploaded to a server. Your data stays on your device.
Why is my compressed PNG still a large file?
PNG is a lossless format, so it can't be shrunk as much as JPG. If your PNG is too large, try converting it to WebP using our 'Convert' tool, which can reduce file size by up to 30% more than PNG while keeping transparency.
