Compress image to 50 KB

Drop in your photos and each one is saved as a JPEG of at most 50 KB, in the best quality that fits that size.

What is a 50 KB photo usually needed for?

  • ID photos for online applications: exams, grants or enrollments.
  • Photos for badges and ID cards.
  • Small images for profiles and directories.

How it works

  1. 1It tries several quality levels and keeps the highest one that fits in 50 KB. If it doesn’t fit even at the lowest quality, it gradually lowers the resolution.
  2. 2It saves as JPEG, which every form accepts, and removes the location data (GPS) from the photo.
  3. 3If a photo is already smaller, it is left as it is. Your originals are never modified.

Frequently asked questions

What resolution will the photo have?
It starts from a maximum of 1280 px on the long edge and, if needed, scales down a little more until it fits in 50 KB. An ID photo stays perfectly sharp.
Are my photos uploaded to the internet?
No. They are processed inside your browser; you can check it by disconnecting from the internet after the page has loaded.
Does it pass if the form counts 1 KB as 1024 bytes?
Yes. The strictest rule is used (1 KB = 1000 bytes), so the file stays under 50 KB however it is counted.
Can I do it with many photos at once?
Yes: drop in several photos or a folder and download them all together in a .zip. For huge folders, the desktop app has no limits.
