Compress image to 2MB

Drop a photo, get a file under 2MB. It runs in your browser, so nothing is uploaded.

How to compress an image to 2MB

  1. Choose your photo or drop it into the box.
  2. Keep the target at 2 MB, or change it to any size you need.
  3. Check the preview, then download the new file.

The tool tries the best JPEG quality that fits under your limit. If the quality alone is not enough, it reduces the image dimensions a little at a time until the file fits.

Why 2MB?

A 2MB limit is common for profile pictures and document uploads. Many phone photos are larger, so compressing them to 2MB keeps nearly all the detail while meeting the limit.
