Compressing images: frequently asked questions
Straight answers to the questions people ask most.
Is it really free?
Yes. There is no paywall, no trial, no watermark, and no usage cap. Open Compress and use it as often as you like.
Does it upload my images?
No. Everything runs locally in your browser. Your images never leave your device.
Do I need to install anything?
No installation, no plugins, no extensions. A current browser is all you need.
Does compression always reduce quality?
Compression trades file size for quality, but with quality control and preview you choose the smallest size that still looks right.

The tool accepts JPEG, PNG, and WebP up to 50 MB, with no daily limit.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes. The tool adapts to any screen, so it works on phones, tablets, laptops, and desktops.
