How to compress an image in three steps

  1. Add your image

    Drop a JPG, PNG or WebP onto the compressor. DigiCompress checks the file signature, so a renamed or broken file is caught straight away.

  2. Choose quality

    Pick a smaller file for the web or messaging, or a higher quality setting for prints and portfolios.

  3. Download the result

    Compare the sizes, save the new image, and the tab releases both versions from memory.

Your photos say more than you think

An image is rarely just an image. Photos of IDs and passports, screenshots of chats or banking apps, pictures of your children, design work under NDA — these are the files people casually drop into online compressors every day. Many phone photos also carry location and camera details hidden in their metadata.

With DigiCompress, none of that leaves your device. The image is decoded and re-encoded by your own browser, and we only ever learn that “an image” of a certain size was compressed. No file names, no pixels, no metadata. When you need an image smaller for a website, a CV portal or a WhatsApp message, there is no reason to hand it to a third party.

Tips for smaller, better-looking images

JPG for photos
Photos with lots of colour and detail compress best as JPG or WebP. You can usually drop well below the original size before anyone notices a difference.
PNG for flat graphics
Logos, icons and screenshots with sharp text look best as PNG. Big PNG photos are often the easiest win: they shrink a lot when re-encoded.
WebP for the web
WebP keeps quality similar to JPG at a smaller size and is supported by every modern browser, which makes it a strong pick for websites.
Check at 100% zoom
Judge quality at actual size, not zoomed in. Slight softness at 400% is invisible to the people who’ll view the image.

Frequently asked questions

Still unsure? Email hello@digicompress.com.

Does compressing an image reduce its quality?

Lossy formats like JPG and WebP trade a little detail for a much smaller file. At the balanced level the difference is very hard to see. Choose higher quality if the image will be printed or edited further.

Can I compress PNG files with transparency?

Yes. Transparent areas are kept when the output stays PNG or WebP. JPG doesn’t support transparency, so keep transparent graphics in one of the other two formats.

Is my photo’s location data sent anywhere?

No. The image, including any metadata inside it, never leaves your browser. Nothing about the content of the photo is sent to DigiCompress.

What’s the maximum image size?

Up to 50 MB per image, which covers high-resolution camera photos and large exported graphics.

Will it work on my phone’s photos?

Yes for JPG, PNG and WebP. iPhones often save photos as HEIC; share or export them as JPG first, or set the camera to “Most Compatible”.

Is DigiCompress free?

Yes. You can compress 3 files a day without an account. Sign in with Google or an email magic link to compress as many files as you like. We don’t sell anything inside the tool, and we never ask for payment details.
