How to use the Compress to 200KB
- Drop one or more images into the box.
- The target is preset to 200 KB. Change it if your form needs a different limit.
- Download each image, or all of them together as a ZIP.
Plenty of room for quality
200 KB is a comfortable size: a typical phone photo can be reduced to this limit while staying sharp at full-screen size. That makes it popular for visa and immigration portals, university applications, job sites and real-estate listings.
The compressor tests different quality levels and keeps the best one that fits, so you never lose more quality than necessary. If the image is already under 200 KB, it's left untouched.
Scanned documents
For scans of certificates, IDs or bank statements, scan in colour at 150–200 DPI rather than 600 DPI. The text stays readable and the file compresses to 200 KB far more easily.
Frequently asked questions
Can I compress several images to 200 KB at once?
Yes. Drop them all in and each one is compressed to the target, then download them individually or as a ZIP.
What if my PNG doesn't get smaller?
In target-size mode PNGs are converted to JPG automatically, because PNG can't be compressed to a specific size. Choose WebP if you need transparency.
Is there a limit on file size?
No hard limit. Very large photos may take a few seconds on older phones.
