Frequently Asked Questions

How does the exact-KB compression work?

The tool iteratively adjusts JPEG/PNG quality levels until the output file size matches your target within a few KB. This gives precise control over the final size.

What is the maximum file size I can upload?

The tool handles source files up to 50MB. Processing time depends on your device but most images compress in under 5 seconds.

Is this really free?

Yes — the compressor is free to use with no hidden costs, signup requirements, or watermarks on your output images.

Are my photos uploaded to a server?

No. All processing happens locally in your browser using JavaScript. Your images never leave your device.

Which formats are supported?

JPG/JPEG, PNG, and WebP — the three most common image formats used across web, mobile, and document uploads.
