Resizing vs compressing -- what's the difference?

Resizing reduces the number of pixels in an image, which shrinks the file directly since there's simply less data to store. Compressing keeps the pixel dimensions the same but encodes the file more efficiently, trading a small amount of visual quality for a smaller file size.

This tool does both at once: pick new dimensions if the image is larger than you need, and a quality level for the compression, then download a single file with both changes applied.

FAQs

How is this free image compressor different from a DPI checker?

Analysis tools like DPI or resolution checkers only analyze a file and tell you its current properties. This free online image compressor actually modifies the file by resizing its dimensions and re-compressing its data to drastically reduce file size without losing visible quality.

Is it safe to compress images here? Does this tool store my files?

No, your privacy is our top priority. This is a secure image compressor with no signup required. Your file is sent to the server for processing, held temporarily in memory only for the duration of the request, and streamed back to you as a download. It is never saved to disk.

What image quality setting should I use to reduce file size?

For standard photos, 80-90% quality is the perfect sweet spot—it provides a noticeably smaller file size with almost zero visible quality loss. Go lower (50-70%) for web thumbnails where page speed matters most, and stick to 95-100% for high-resolution graphics headed to print.

Why is my PNG file size still large even after compression?

PNG is a lossless format, meaning a lower quality setting reduces the color palette instead of degrading pixel details. For photographs, converting your file to JPEG or WebP and then compressing it will produce a much smaller file size with similar or better visual results.
