What this tool does
Compress an image toward 200KB locally and balance visual quality, dimensions, and format.
Practical guidance
Two hundred kilobytes can retain good detail for typical web photos. Compare faces, fine text, and smooth gradients because those areas reveal compression artifacts sooner than flat backgrounds.
Three simple steps
- Add an image.
- Keep the suggested settings or set a maximum size.
- Compare and download the result.
Private by design
Your images are processed in this browser. They are not sent to our server.
Browser processing limits
A target size is a best effort. Complex images may need lower quality or smaller dimensions.
Frequently asked questions
Why is the result slightly above or below 200KB?
Image encoders produce discrete file sizes, so an exact byte value is not always possible.
Will metadata be kept?
No. Every processed result is re-encoded without common metadata such as EXIF and GPS data.
Concrete input and output example
Input a 3000×2000 listing photo at 3.2MB and target 200KB. Check the 190–198KB output at normal display size and zoom into fine fabric or foliage for artifacts.
Browser compatibility notes
Reviewed against the implementation and required web APIs on 2026-08-12. Use a current browser where these APIs are available and verify important output on your device.
- Chrome / Edge (current desktop)
- Requires local decode, canvas, encoding, Blob download, and enough memory; verify the downloaded image.
- Firefox (current desktop)
- Uses the same standard local APIs; color rendering can differ slightly from Chromium.
- Safari (current desktop)
- Uses canvas and Blob downloads; available memory and codec behavior remain WebKit-controlled.
A tool-specific question
Can a 200KB result be print quality?
It depends on dimensions, subject, and print size. The target controls bytes, not DPI or visible quality; inspect at the intended physical size.
