Frequently Asked Questions

Will compressing my image make it blurry?
Our recommended 80% quality setting removes redundant image metadata and applies smart chroma subsampling, shrinking file size by 60–80% with virtually zero visible difference to the human eye.
Can I compress PNG photos with transparent backgrounds?
Yes. For transparent graphics, choose WebP output to preserve alpha transparency while achieving massive file size savings.
Is there a limit on how many images I can compress?
No! Because compression happens on your device's hardware rather than our servers, there are zero usage quotas, watermarks, or subscription paywalls.
