Compress JPG
Make JPG photos small enough for email, forms and websites. The location your phone saved in the photo is removed on the way.
How it works
Choose JPG photos or drop them on the box, up to 50 at once.
Keep Balanced, or set a maximum width if the photos are larger than you need.
Select Compress and download the photos one by one or as a ZIP.
Questions
About Compress JPG.
Is there a difference between JPG and JPEG?
No. Both names stand for the same format. The tool takes files ending in .jpg and .jpeg and keeps the ending.
Which setting should I choose?
Balanced suits most photos and is hard to tell apart from the original on screen. Smaller file is good for email attachments. Better quality keeps more fine detail, for example for printing.
Does compressing a JPG again lose quality?
A little each time, because JPG always drops some detail. If a photo is already compressed well, the tool keeps your original instead of making it worse.
Is the location removed from my photos?
Yes. By default the tool removes GPS location, camera details and the date the photo was taken. The photo still shows the right way up and keeps its colors. Under Advanced you can keep this data if you need it.
Are my images uploaded?
No. Compression happens in your browser on your own device. The images are never sent to our servers, so private photos stay private.
