Compress image to 60KB

Drop a photo, get a file under 60KB. It runs in your browser, so nothing is uploaded.

How to use it

  1. Choose your photo or drop it into the box.
  2. Keep the target at 60 KB, or change it to any size you need.
  3. Check the preview, then download the new file.

Why 60KB?

60KB is a common limit for photo and ID fields on application forms. 60KB gives cleaner faces than 50KB while still fitting most small-photo limits.

How it works: the tool tries the best JPEG quality that fits under your limit. If quality alone is not enough, it reduces the image dimensions a little at a time until the file fits. Everything happens inside your browser tab, so there is no upload, no account and no watermark.

Tip: if the result looks too soft, crop away empty space first (a smaller picture needs less compression) or raise the target a little.

Questions

How do I compress an image to 60KB?

Choose your photo, keep the target at 60KB and download the result. The tool finds the highest JPEG quality that fits under 60KB and only shrinks the dimensions if it has to.

Is my photo uploaded to a server?

No. Compression runs entirely in your browser, so your image never leaves your device.

Will the quality drop at 60KB?

Some loss is unavoidable when a file gets smaller, but the tool keeps the best quality that still fits the limit. Photos with fine detail lose more than simple images; raise the target if the result looks too soft.

Which formats work?

JPG, PNG and WebP can be used as input. The output is always a JPG, the format that gives the smallest file for photos. Transparent areas of a PNG become white.
