Question 1

How much can I compress my images?

Accepted Answer

Typically, you can reduce image file sizes by 50-80% while maintaining good visual quality. The exact reduction depends on the original image and your quality settings.

Question 2

What's the best quality setting for compression?

Accepted Answer

For most uses, 70-85% quality provides a great balance between file size and visual quality. Use higher settings (90%+) for important images, lower (50-60%) for web thumbnails.

Question 3

Which output format should I choose - JPEG or WebP?

Accepted Answer

JPEG is best for photographs and offers maximum compatibility. WebP provides 25-35% better compression but may not be supported by all older browsers. Stick with JPEG for maximum compatibility.

Question 4

Is my image uploaded to a server?

Accepted Answer

No. All compression happens directly in your browser using Canvas technology. Your images never leave your device, ensuring complete privacy.

Question 5

Why is my compressed file sometimes larger than the original?

Accepted Answer

This happens when the original image was already well optimized. Try lowering the quality setting, or keep the original if it's already small enough for your needs.
