How do I compress a photo to under 50KB online?

Upload your photo, turn on Compress to target size, enter 50 in the KB box, and process. The tool automatically lowers the JPG or WebP quality until the file fits under 50KB, all inside your browser without uploading anything.

How can I convert an iPhone HEIC photo to JPG?

Drop the HEIC file into the tool and choose JPG as the output format. The image is decoded and converted to a standard JPG directly on your device, so it will upload to government and exam portals that reject HEIC.

Is this image resizer safe and private?

Yes. All resizing, converting and compressing happens locally in your browser using JavaScript. Your image is never uploaded to any server, and re-saving it also removes hidden GPS and camera metadata.

Why can't I compress a PNG to an exact file size?

PNG is a lossless format, so its file size depends on the image dimensions rather than a quality setting. To reach an exact KB target, choose JPG or WebP as the output format, or reduce the image dimensions.

Does resizing an image reduce its quality?

Reducing an image's size keeps it sharp. Enlarging an image beyond its original dimensions can look soft because the browser cannot recreate detail that was never captured.

Compress a photo to under 50KB, 20KB or any size

Many government and exam portals set a strict maximum file size for photo and signature uploads. Turn on Compress to target size, type the limit (for example 50 KB or 20 KB), and the tool intelligently lowers the JPG or WebP quality until the file fits — without you having to guess a quality percentage. If it cannot reach the target at the current dimensions, it tells you honestly and suggests resizing smaller.

Convert iPhone HEIC photos to JPG

iPhones save photos in the HEIC format, which most Indian government and exam portals refuse to accept. Drop a HEIC file here and the tool converts it to a standard JPG (or PNG/WebP) that uploads everywhere. The conversion happens on your own device.

A note on form requirements

The quick presets are based on commonly requested sizes and are provided for convenience only. Photo and signature specifications differ between portals and change from time to time, so always confirm the exact format, dimensions and file-size limit in your official notification or the portal's upload page before submitting.

Frequently asked questions

Is my image uploaded anywhere? No. All processing happens locally in your browser using JavaScript and the Canvas API. Nothing is sent to a server, and re-saving the image also strips hidden GPS and camera metadata.

Why can't I compress a PNG to a target size? PNG is a lossless format, so file size is driven by dimensions rather than quality. To hit an exact KB target, choose JPG or WebP, or reduce the image dimensions.

Will resizing reduce quality? Making an image smaller keeps it crisp. Enlarging beyond the original size can look soft, since a browser cannot add detail that was not captured.

Does it work on mobile? Yes, it works in any modern browser on Android, iPhone and desktop.
