Questions
How do I reduce an image to 500 KB?
Add your image, keep 500 KB selected as the target and press Resize. The tool lowers the quality and, if needed, the pixel size until the file fits under 500 KB, then you download it.
Will my photo still look good at 500 KB?
Yes, for most photos. We pick the highest quality that fits, so the picture stays as sharp as 500 KB allows.
Is the result exactly 500 KB?
It is at or just under 500 KB. If a form needs a file of at least a certain size, switch on the option to match the target size closely.
Is my image uploaded to a server?
No. Everything happens inside your browser on your own device, so your photo stays private.
What if the image is already smaller than my target?
We tell you. The tool never makes a picture bigger on purpose, so you can use the original file if it already fits.
