Frequently asked questions

Can this tool compress PNG images

Yes. PNG images are converted to JPG format first. This conversion allows the slider to reduce file size reliably. Note that JPG does not support transparency. Transparent areas will become white after conversion.

Will image quality be bad after compression

No. You control quality with the slider. Choose a value that balances size and visual clarity. For most web pages, values between 70 and 85 work well.

Does this run on my server or the browser

The compression runs in the browser on the user device. Files are not uploaded to any server by default. This keeps images private and fast to process.

Can I compress many images at once

Yes. Add multiple files or drag a batch into the drop zone. Each image shows its before and after size so you can compare.

Will compressed files keep their original file names

The tool keeps the original base name. It appends the word compressed and uses the new file extension. Example name compressed.jpg for an original image name.

Do compressed images work with WordPress themes and page builders

Yes. Download the compressed files and upload them to WordPress. Replace the original media files or add new media items. Compressed images reduce page size and improve theme performance.
