Hit a target file size exactly

Job applications, school portals and government forms often say “photo under 300 KB” or “max 1 MB per file”. Enter a target and the tool starts at high JPG quality and steps down until it finds the best quality that's still under your target. If lowering quality isn't enough, it scales the image down as well.

When it's done you'll see a table with each file's original size, new size, savings and final dimensions. A single photo downloads directly; several come as a ZIP. Photos that can't get any smaller are kept as they are. The orientation tag (EXIF) is applied, and metadata such as GPS location isn't saved — a privacy bonus.

Everything happens in your browser. Photos are never uploaded.

Frequently asked questions

How much quality is lost?

With a reasonable target there's hardly any visible difference. Very small targets (under 100 KB) may reduce dimensions and soften details.

What about iPhone HEIC photos?

They work — HEIC photos are converted to JPG or WEBP while compressing.

Can I compress PNGs with transparency?

Choose “Original format” to keep PNG and its transparency. Converting to JPG fills transparent areas with white.
