// Overview

ABOUT THE IMAGE COMPRESSOR

The Image Compressor reduces JPG, PNG, and WebP file sizes using the HTML5 Canvas API, entirely in your browser. Images are never uploaded to any server — ensuring complete privacy, especially important for sensitive documents like Aadhaar, mark sheets, and personal photos.

Large images cause problems everywhere: government portals reject photos above 50-100 KB, WhatsApp sends compressed images slowly on weak connections, and email attachment limits are easily hit. Our compressor reduces file size while maintaining visually acceptable quality — at 75-85% quality JPG compression is virtually invisible to the human eye.

// Why Compress

WHY FILE SIZE MATTERS

  • Government portals (UPSC, SSC, banking forms) require photos under 50 KB
  • WhatsApp — compressed images send faster on slow 3G/4G connections
  • Email — reduce attachment sizes to stay within limits
  • Websites — images are 50-70% of page weight; smaller images load faster

// Tips

COMPRESSION TIPS

  • For WhatsApp: 200-500 KB balances quality and speed
  • Quality 75-85% is virtually indistinguishable from original for photos
  • PNG is better for screenshots with text; JPG is better for photos
