How it works

  1. Choose PNG files or drop them on the box, up to 50 at once.

  2. Keep Balanced, or pick Better quality to keep every pixel exactly as it was.

  3. Select Compress and download the files one by one or as a ZIP.

Questions

About Compress PNG.

How does the tool make PNG files smaller?

Balanced reduces an image to at most 256 carefully chosen colors, which screenshots and graphics rarely need more of. Better quality keeps every pixel and only stores the file more efficiently.

Will transparent areas stay transparent?

Yes. Transparency is kept, including soft edges and shadows.

Should photos be PNG or JPG?

JPG. A photo saved as PNG is often several times larger than the same photo as JPG. Use PNG to JPG for those, and keep PNG for screenshots and graphics.

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.

Convert on our servers

When you need a different format, for example HEIC photos from an iPhone as JPG. Files are deleted after 24 hours.
