What's the difference between lossy and lossless compression?

Lossy compression permanently removes some image data to achieve smaller file sizes, while lossless compression reduces file size without any quality loss. Our tool uses lossy compression for maximum size reduction.

Are my images kept private?

Absolutely! All image processing happens directly in your browser. Your images are never uploaded to our servers, ensuring complete privacy and security.

How Image Compression Works

Understanding the technology behind our compressor

Compression Algorithms

Our tool uses advanced compression algorithms that analyze your image and remove redundant data. It identifies patterns and similar color regions to optimize storage without significantly impacting visual quality.

Lossy vs Lossless

Lossy compression removes some image data permanently for maximum size reduction. Lossless preserves all data but offers less compression. Our tool uses lossy compression with adjustable quality to give you control over the balance.

Client-Side Processing

All compression happens directly in your browser using HTML5 Canvas technology. Your images never leave your device, ensuring complete privacy and faster processing without server uploads.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about image compression

You can reduce image file sizes by up to 80% depending on the original image and quality settings. Our tool lets you adjust compression from 10% to 100% quality. Images with lots of solid colors or simple graphics compress better than detailed photographs.

Some quality loss may occur with lossy compression, but at higher quality settings (70-90%), the difference is often imperceptible to the human eye while still achieving significant file size reduction. For web use, most viewers won't notice any difference.

Lossy compression permanently removes some image data to achieve smaller file sizes—perfect for web images where smaller files mean faster loading. Lossless compression reduces file size without any quality loss but typically achieves less compression. Our tool uses lossy compression for maximum size reduction.

Our image compressor supports JPG/JPEG, PNG, and WEBP formats. These are the most commonly used image formats on the web. PNG images are converted to JPG during compression to achieve better size reduction while maintaining good quality.

Yes, the maximum file size for compression is 50MB. This limit ensures optimal performance and quick processing times in your browser. Most images for web and personal use are well under this limit.
