Compress JPG

Reduce your JPG file size while maintaining visual quality. 100% in-browser.

Your images are never uploaded — processing stays in your browser

Large JPG files slow down websites, get rejected by upload portals, and waste mobile data. This free compressor reduces file size while letting you control quality and target output size — all without uploading your photo to a server. Drag and drop a JPG, adjust the quality slider or set a KB target, preview the result side-by-side with the original, then download instantly. Batch mode lets you compress up to five images and download them as a ZIP.
