## Reduce Image Size Without Losing the Shot

Large photos slow down websites, bounce off email limits, and eat storage. AiLoveKit's **image compressor** re-encodes JPG, PNG, and WebP files at the quality you choose and shows the before/after size instantly - all in your browser, so personal photos stay private.

## Choosing Format and Quality

- **Keep original + lower quality** - simplest path for JPG photos.

- **WebP output** - 25-35% smaller than JPG at equal visual quality; ideal for websites.

- **Quality 60-80** - the sweet spot where eyes can't tell the difference.

Before sharing photos anywhere, also run [Remove EXIF](https://www.ailovekit.com/image/remove-exif/) to strip GPS and camera data.

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How much smaller will my image get?**

Photos typically shrink 50-80% at quality 75. The tool reports original and compressed sizes so you can judge the trade-off.

**Is PNG supported?**

Yes - though PNG is lossless, it can be re-encoded as JPG or WebP for much smaller results via the output format option.

**Are my photos uploaded?**

No. Compression happens on your device via the browser canvas; photos never leave your computer.
