How to compress an image to 100 KB

Quick answer: To compress an image to 100 KB, add your images, check the target, press Compress and download.

  1. Add your images. Drag photos onto the box above or click it to choose them. JPG, PNG, WebP and AVIF all work, and you can add many at once.
  2. Check the target. It's already set to 100 KB. You can type a different number or pick another common size.
  3. Press Compress. Each image is saved at the highest quality that still fits under the limit. The new size is shown next to it.
  4. Download. Save each image, or download them all as one zip.

When do you need a 100 KB image?

Many sites refuse files over a set size. 100 KB limits are common for job portals, college applications, profile pictures and email. 100 KB is enough for a full-screen-looking photo at about 1200 px wide. Most photos fit without being made smaller.

How it works

The tool tries different JPG quality levels and keeps the best one under your limit. If even low quality is too big, it makes the photo a bit smaller and tries again, so you always get the sharpest photo that fits.

Is it safe for ID photos and documents?

Yes. Nothing is uploaded: the image is processed on your own phone or computer, and hidden data such as GPS location is removed from the result.

Frequently asked questions

Will my photo look blurry at 100 KB?

Usually not. The tool keeps the full size and only lowers JPG quality until the photo fits, and it shrinks the photo only when quality alone is not enough.

Can I compress a PNG to 100 KB?

Yes. Choose JPG as the format (the default) for the smallest file. If the form needs PNG, choose PNG: it can only get smaller by reducing the pixel size.

Can I compress many photos at once?

Yes. Add as many as you like. They're compressed one after another, and Download all gives you a zip.

Does it work on a phone?

Yes. It works in Chrome, Safari and Firefox on Android and iPhone, with no app to install.
