An iPhone photo as a JPG under 100 KB
At 100 KB there is no room for a full iPhone photo, so the pixel size has to come down as well as the quality. We step both down together and keep the first setting that fits, so it stays as sharp as that size allows.
A 12-megapixel iPhone photo under 100 KB usually keeps around 1,600 pixels on its long side, clear on screen and fine for most form previews.
Tips
- Crop to what the form needs before you upload, such as your face for an ID photo. Fewer pixels to keep means more quality for the ones left.
- On an iPhone, uploading straight from Safari usually hands the site a JPG already. This is for HEIC files that have reached a computer, by AirDrop, iCloud or email.
- We remove camera metadata such as GPS location from the JPG, which also keeps where you took the photo private.
How it works
- 1
Drop your file
A PDF or an image. It goes over an encrypted connection and nowhere else.
- 2
Pick your limit
Choose the size the form asks for. We start with a cleanup that changes nothing you can see.
- 3
Download it
If it needs more, we find the gentlest quality setting that still fits, and delete everything soon after.
Questions
Is it free?
Yes. There is no sign-up and no watermark.
What happens to my file?
It is processed on our server and deleted automatically: the original 5 minutes after the run finishes, the compressed file after 10. A file you upload but never compress is deleted within 30 minutes. You can also delete everything right away with Delete now.
Will it look worse?
We try a lossless cleanup first, which does not change how the file looks. Only if that is not enough do we lower image quality, and we pick the gentlest setting that still fits your size.
What if my file cannot get that small?
You get the smallest version we could make and a clear note saying so, instead of a file that silently misses the limit.
Why does the size page aim a little under its limit?
Some sites count a kilobyte as 1000 bytes and others as 1024. We aim under the stricter one, so a 200 KB page aims for 200,000 bytes and the file passes either way.
