Make photos smaller without uploading them

Shrink a batch of photos for email, WhatsApp, a form or a website. Pick a size or a file-size limit and take them away one by one or as a zip — all on your own device.

Your photos never leave your device

Size

Photos are never made bigger. With a file-size limit, the quality comes down first and the pixel size only if it must.

85

HEIC becomes JPEG and GIF becomes PNG (its first frame); the rest stay as they are wherever this browser can write them.

Details are kept in JPEG and WebP copies, without the hidden thumbnail. PNG copies carry no details at all.

File names

Everything happens inside this page. Nothing is uploaded and nothing is sent anywhere — once the page has loaded, it even works offline.

How it works

Smaller files, the same photos

Open

Your browser opens each photo — HEIC with a decoder that runs on this page — turns it the right way up and scales it down smoothly, one photo at a time.

Compress

It is saved again at the quality you choose. With a file-size limit, the best quality that fits is found first; the pixel size only comes down if it has to.

Keep what matters

The date, camera, lens and exposure go back into JPEG and WebP copies. The location, the hidden thumbnail and the camera maker’s notes stay behind.

What changes

Exactly what is changed, and what is kept

Changed

The pixel size (never larger), the compression, and the name if you add the size. HEIC becomes JPEG; a GIF becomes a still PNG.

Kept

With “Keep the date and camera details”: the date taken, camera, lens, exposure settings, artist and copyright — in JPEG and WebP copies.

Left out

The GPS location (unless you untick it), the small preview hidden inside the file, the camera maker’s private notes, serial numbers, and extras such as ratings and keywords.

For your whole library
