What this image compressor does

This tool takes an image you upload and re-encodes it so the file uses fewer bytes. Compressing an image is different from resizing it: resizing changes the width and height in pixels, while compression reduces image file size and usually leaves the dimensions untouched. A photo can stay 4000 × 3000 pixels and still lose most of its weight, or barely shrink at all if it was already optimized.

Use it when a JPEG is too big for a website upload form, an email attachment limit, a social platform, or a product listing. If you also need different dimensions, run the image resizer first and compress afterwards.

How to compress an image online

  1. 이미지 업로드. JPEG, PNG, WEBP, HEIC 또는 기타 지원 형식의 이미지를 업로드 영역에 드롭하거나 여러 이미지를 한 번에 선택하세요.
  2. 품질 수준 선택. 품질 슬라이더를 조절하세요(기본 80%). 품질이 낮을수록 파일은 작아지고 아티팩트가 더 눈에 띕니다.
  3. 또는 목표 파일 크기 설정. KB 단위 목표 크기를 입력하면 해당 파일 크기에 맞추도록 품질이 자동으로 조정됩니다.
  4. 압축 후 다운로드. 이미지 압축을 누르고 처리가 끝날 때까지 기다린 후 전후를 비교하고 더 작은 파일을 다운로드하세요.

Three ways to reduce image size

File size comes from three things: how much detail the encoder keeps, how many pixels the image has, and which format stores those pixels. You can pull any of those levers, and combining them gives the biggest reduction.

1. Lower the encoding quality

The quickest way to reduce image file size is to compress at a lower quality. Dropping a photo from 100% to 80% often removes more than half the bytes with no obvious difference on screen. This is what the quality slider above does.

2. Reduce the pixel dimensions

A 6000-pixel-wide photo displayed in a 1200-pixel column is carrying five times more data than it needs. Cutting the width in half removes roughly three quarters of the pixels. Use the resize image tool to set exact dimensions or a percentage, then compress the result.

3. Switch to a lighter format

Format matters as much as quality. A screenshot saved as PNG can shrink dramatically as WEBP, and a photo stored as PNG is often much smaller as JPEG. Keep PNG only when you need transparency or pixel-exact graphics.

Compressing JPEG, PNG, WEBP, and HEIC

Compress JPEG

JPEG is built for photographs and responds well to compression. Camera and phone JPEGs are usually saved at a very high quality setting, so re-encoding at 75–85% typically cuts the file size in half while the photo still looks the same at normal viewing size.

Compress PNG

PNG is lossless. This compressor runs OxiPNG in your browser on the original PNG bytes — it does not re-encode through Canvas. Flat graphics, logos, and screenshots compress well. Photographs saved as PNG usually get much smaller by converting them instead.

Compress WEBP and AVIF

WEBP and AVIF are already efficient modern formats, so expect smaller gains than with an untouched JPEG. They are still worth compressing when you are chasing page speed and every kilobyte in the payload counts.

Compress HEIC photos from an iPhone

HEIC uploads are compressed and saved as JPEG, which makes them viewable everywhere. If you only need the format change without extra compression, use the dedicated HEIC to JPG converter.

Which quality setting should you use?

Quality What you get Good for
85–90% Modest size reduction, detail kept Portfolios, print-adjacent work, photo archives
75–85% Large saving, hard to tell apart from the original Website images, blog posts, product photos
60–75% Small file, slight softness in fine texture Email attachments, forms with upload limits
10–60% Smallest file, visible blocking and banding Thumbnails, previews, strict size caps

These are starting points, not rules. After compressing you get a before and after slider, so you can raise or lower the quality and re-apply until the balance looks right.

Why people reduce image file size

  • Faster pages. Images are usually the heaviest part of a page, so compressing them is the simplest way to improve load time and Core Web Vitals.
  • Email and messaging limits. Most providers cap attachments, and a handful of phone photos passes that cap quickly.
  • Upload forms. Job applications, government portals, and school systems often reject anything over a fixed number of kilobytes.
  • Marketplace and CMS rules. Storefronts and content platforms enforce their own maximum file size per image.
  • Storage and backups. Smaller files mean more photos in the same space and quicker syncing.

Supported formats and limits

Accepted uploads: JPEG, PNG, WEBP, GIF, BMP, TIFF, AVIF, HEIC. Maximum size: 200 MB per image.

Limitations: Compression can reduce visual quality. HEIC inputs are saved as JPEG. Transparent PNGs converted through JPEG-oriented paths lose transparency. Savings depend on the original file.

Privacy: Your image is processed locally in your browser and is not uploaded to ImgTask's server. Image files never leave your device. No account is needed and results carry no watermark.

Frequently Asked Questions

압축은 이미지 파일 크기를 줄여 업로드, 이메일 전송, 웹사이트 로딩을 쉽게 합니다. 보통 인코딩 품질을 조정하며 이미지의 가로·세로 크기는 반드시 바꾸지 않습니다.
압축 전에 목표 파일 크기(KB) 필드에 값을 입력하세요. 품질이 자동으로 조정되어 해당 크기에 가깝게 맞춰집니다 — 예: 양식 업로드용 100 KB, 웹 페이지용 500 KB.
품질 80% 정도에서 시작하고 전후 미리보기를 비교하세요. 대부분의 사진은 75–85%에서도 동일하게 보이면서 파일 크기는 눈에 띄게 줄어듭니다.
압축은 파일 크기를 줄입니다. 크기 조정은 픽셀 치수(가로·세로)를 변경합니다. 둘 다 사용할 수 있습니다: 먼저 크기 조정, 파일이 여전히 크면 압축.
JPEG, PNG, WEBP, GIF, BMP, TIFF, AVIF, HEIC/HEIF를 업로드할 수 있습니다. HEIC 사진은 압축 후 JPEG로 저장됩니다. 결과와 절약량은 형식마다 다릅니다.
이미지당 최대 200 MB입니다. 매우 큰 픽셀 치수는 브라우저에서 실패할 수 있습니다. 처리는 브라우저에서 이루어지며 백그라운드 서버 큐로 전송되지 않습니다.
압축은 브라우저에서 실행됩니다. 이미지는 로컬에서 처리되며 ImgTask 서버에 업로드되지 않습니다. 이미지 파일은 기기를 떠나지 않습니다.
업로더에서 여러 이미지를 선택할 수 있습니다. 각 이미지는 별도 작업으로 처리됩니다.
