Frequently Asked Questions
How do I compress an image to 100KB without losing quality?
Start at 80% quality and step down until the displayed output size is under 100KB. Between 60–80% quality most photos show no visible difference while shrinking 80–95% in size.
Is my photo uploaded anywhere when compressing to 100KB?
No. Compression runs entirely in your browser using the Canvas API. Your image is never transmitted to any server, which matters for ID documents and application photos.
Which formats can I compress to 100KB?
JPG, JPEG, PNG, and WebP. For the smallest sizes, JPG or WebP output gives the best quality-to-size ratio at the 100KB target.
