Pro tips

  • Try converting to WebP for photos — it typically produces smaller files than JPEG at the same visual quality.
  • Resize width to 1200px or less for blog hero images before uploading.

Common mistakes

  • Quality below 50% on portraits.
  • JPEG for logos needing transparency.
  • Re-compressing already tiny files.

Privacy note

All compression happens locally in your browser using the Canvas API. Your images are never uploaded to Sounez servers. The compressed files stay on your device until you download them.

When not to use this tool

RAW camera files, animated GIFs, and print CMYK workflows need dedicated tools. If you need to preserve lossless image data for professional photography archiving, use a desktop tool designed for that workflow.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the maximum file size supported?

Very large files (above 25 MB) may be slow or cause issues depending on available browser memory. Most files under 25 MB work reliably. If a file is too large, try resizing the dimensions first.

Does the compressor support WebP uploads?

All modern browsers support WebP as an input format. The compressor accepts WebP, JPG, and PNG files as input and can convert between these formats.

Can I compress multiple images at once?

Yes — up to 20 images per batch. After compression, download them individually or use the ZIP download option to get all files at once.

Need several assets at once?
