About this tool

Modern phone photos are 4–8 MB each, which is far more than a web page, a document or an email needs. JPG compression is very effective on photographic content: at 75% quality most images are visually indistinguishable from the original at a fraction of the size.

Add as many images as you like — they are all re-encoded in one run, and a set of several arrives as a single ZIP. Compression happens on your device, so family photos and work images are never uploaded.

What it's good for

  • Shrinking phone photos before attaching them to an email.
  • Preparing images for a website so pages load faster.
  • Fitting several photos under an upload limit.
  • Reducing a folder of images before archiving it.
