How is the result calculated?

Shrinking a photo for email

A 6.2 MB JPEG photo re-encoded at 70% quality typically lands around 800 KB — an 87% saving — with no visible difference on a phone screen. At 40% quality the same photo may drop below 400 KB, but starts to show artifacts when zoomed.

Example input and output
Input Value
image 6.2 MB JPEG
quality 70
Result ≈ 800 KB (−87%) at 70% quality

What is the formula and its assumptions?

Compression method

output = re-encode(input, quality)

Formula terms
Symbol Meaning
quality 0–100; lower quality → smaller file, more artifacts

Re-encoding also normalizes the image — metadata is not carried over, which is disclosed on the page.

Size saving

saving % = (original − output) / original × 100

Formula terms
Symbol Meaning
original input file size in bytes
output compressed file size in bytes

What are the most common mistakes?

  • Compressing a PNG and expecting big savings — lossless formats need conversion, not quality reduction.
  • Choosing the smallest size without checking the output visually — a blurry hero image hurts more than a few hundred KB.
  • Using an online compressor that uploads the image — this tool keeps the file on your device.

What are the assumptions and limitations?

  • JPEG and WebP support quality re-encoding; PNG output keeps lossless compression and shows limited savings.
  • Animated GIFs are converted to a single frame.
  • Input is limited to 25 MB to keep processing responsive.

Frequently asked questions

What quality should I use?

For photos, 60–80% balances size and quality for most screens; below 50% artifacts become visible. Screenshots and graphics with flat colors compress well at lower qualities. The slider shows the exact output size at each setting, so you can find the smallest acceptable file.

Why is my PNG not getting smaller?

PNG is lossless, so re-encoding at a lower quality changes little. Converting to WebP or JPEG (available in the compressor’s sibling converter) is what actually shrinks PNG files — often by 60–80%.

Does compression remove metadata?

Yes — re-encoding produces a clean file without EXIF, GPS, or copyright metadata, and the page says so on every result. Keep the original file when the metadata is important to you.
