Compress Image to 500 KB
Compress a JPG, PNG or WebP image to under 500 KB for free. It automatically finds the best quality that fits your 500 KB target, shows the before and after size, and lets you download — all in your browser, nothing uploaded.
Frequently asked questions
How do I compress an image to 500 KB?
Upload your image and the tool automatically lowers the quality just enough to bring the file under 500 KB, then shows you the result to download.
Why can't some images reach 500 KB?
Very large or highly detailed images may not fit 500 KB at their full dimensions even at low quality. Resizing the image smaller first lets it go below 500 KB.
Will the image lose quality?
Some quality is traded for size, but the tool keeps it as high as possible while meeting your target. You can also download a WebP version, which is usually smaller at the same quality.
Are my images uploaded?
No. Compression happens entirely in your browser, so your images never leave your device.
