About Image Compressor to 1MB
This image compressor makes your photo smaller than 1 MB so it fits websites, email and marketplaces. It first lowers the JPG quality step by step to find the best quality that still fits. If the picture is so large that quality alone is not enough, it also reduces the pixel size a little until the file is under 1 MB.
As a guide, a normal photo that must stay under 1 MB ends up at roughly 2000 x 1800 pixels. Most phone photos are 3 to 8MB. Bringing them under 1MB usually costs very little visible quality.

Frequently asked questions
How do I compress an image to 1 MB?
Choose your image above and press Compress. The tool finds the highest quality that is still under 1 MB and gives you the file to download.
Will my photo still look good at 1 MB?
Usually yes. A photo of about 2000 x 1800 pixels looks clean at this size. Very large photos are resized a little so they do not turn blocky.
My file is still above 1 MB. What can I do?
Crop the picture to the part you need, then compress it again. Cropping removes pixels, so more of the 1 MB budget goes to the part that matters.
Can I compress many images to 1 MB together?
Yes. Select as many files as you like. Each one is compressed to 1 MB or less, and you can download them together as a ZIP.
Are my files safe?
Everything runs inside your browser, so your files stay on your device and are never uploaded.
