About this tool
Upload limits are the usual reason for needing an exact size. Job portals, government forms and university applications very often cap attachments at a specific figure such as 200KB, and reject anything above it without explaining why.
Rather than guessing at a quality slider, this page searches for the highest quality that still fits under 200KB, so you get the best-looking image that will actually be accepted.
Frequently asked questions
- Will my image still look good at 200KB?
- Usually yes. The tool tries the highest quality that fits, and only reduces the dimensions if quality alone cannot reach 200KB. A very large photo squeezed into a small target will show some softening.
- Are the original dimensions kept?
- Yes in almost every case. Compression changes how the image is encoded, not how many pixels it has. Dimensions are only reduced when a size target cannot be met any other way.
- Which formats can I compress?
- JPG, PNG, WebP, HEIC and TIFF are all accepted. HEIC photos from an iPhone are decoded in the browser, so they work here even though many desktop apps cannot open them.
- Are my images uploaded to a server?
- No. Every image is processed by your own browser, so the file never leaves your device and there is nothing for us to store or see.
- Is this tool free?
- Yes, completely free with no signup, no watermark and no limit on how many images you process.
