Question 1

How does image compression work?

Accepted Answer

Image compression reduces file size by removing unnecessary data and optimizing the image encoding. Our tool uses smart compression algorithms that maintain visual quality while significantly reducing file size - often by 50-80%.

Question 2

Will compressing my images reduce quality?

Accepted Answer

With the right quality settings, compressed images are virtually indistinguishable from originals. We recommend starting with 80-85% quality for the best balance of file size and visual quality. You can preview the result before downloading.

Question 3

Is this image compressor really free?

Accepted Answer

Yes, this image compressor is 100% free with no usage limits. The tool runs entirely in your browser, so your images are never uploaded to our servers. You can compress as many images as you need.

Question 4

Should I use JPEG or PNG for my compressed images?

Accepted Answer

Use JPEG for photographs and images with many colors - it offers the best compression for these types. Use PNG when you need transparency or for graphics with sharp edges, text, or limited colors. JPEG typically produces smaller files for photos.

Question 5

Are my images uploaded to your servers?

Accepted Answer

No, your images are never uploaded to our servers. All compression happens entirely in your web browser using the HTML5 Canvas API. Your images stay private on your device.
