How to Use Our Image Compressor

- For JPG/WEBP: Use the "Compression Level" slider. A lower value means more compression (smaller file size) but lower quality. A higher value means less compression (larger file size) and better quality.
- For PNG: Choose an option from the "For PNG, compress by converting to:" dropdown. "Keep PNG" will attempt minimal optimization. Converting to JPG or WEBP will apply lossy compression based on the slider.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is the SK Multi Tools Image Compressor free to use?
Yes, absolutely! Our image compressor is completely free and you can use it as many times as you need.
Are my images secure when I use this tool?
Your privacy is paramount. The entire compression process happens locally in your web browser. Your images are never uploaded to our or any third-party servers.
What image formats can I compress?
This tool is optimized for compressing JPG, PNG, and WEBP images. For PNGs, you have the option to convert them to a more compressible format like JPG or WEBP for greater size reduction.
How much can I reduce the file size?
The amount of compression depends on the original image, its format, and the compression level you choose (for JPG/WEBP). You can often achieve significant reductions (50-80% or more) with minimal visible quality loss, especially for JPEGs.
Will compressing an image reduce its quality?
JPG and lossy WEBP compression are "lossy," meaning some image data is discarded to reduce file size. The key is to find a good balance. Our tool allows you to control this. PNG compression, if kept as PNG, is generally lossless or near-lossless but might not yield as much size reduction as converting to a lossy format.
