❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Is image compression safe and private?

Yes! Our image compression happens entirely in your browser using client-side JavaScript. Your images never leave your device or get uploaded to our servers, ensuring complete privacy.

What's the difference between lossy and lossless compression?

Lossy compression (JPEG, WebP lossy) removes some image data to achieve smaller files, while lossless compression (PNG, WebP lossless) preserves all original data but with less space savings.

Why should I use WebP format?

WebP provides superior compression efficiency, typically 25-35% smaller file sizes than JPEG/PNG while maintaining similar or better quality. It's supported by all modern browsers.

How much can I compress images without losing quality?

For JPEG, quality levels of 75-85% typically provide excellent results with significant space savings. For WebP, you can often use 70-80% with even better results than JPEG at higher quality.

Can I compress images in bulk?

Yes! You can select multiple images at once and apply the same compression settings to all of them. The tool will process them in batches and provide individual download links.

What image formats are supported?

We support JPEG, PNG, WebP, and GIF input formats. You can convert between formats during compression for additional optimization benefits.
