Compress images

Make photos smaller to upload, email or post. Nothing is uploaded.

Uploaded to our servers: 0 bytes Try it: load this page, switch off your Wi-Fi, then convert. It still works.

Set a file size, not a mystery quality number

Forms often say “max 500 KB” or “under 2 MB”. Type that limit and Virvla finds the best quality that fits, shrinking the picture only if it has to.

Compressed photos also lose their hidden location and camera data, which is good for privacy when you share them.

How to use it

  1. Drop your photos.
  2. Enter the size limit, or a maximum width.
  3. Download the smaller files.

Questions

Are my files uploaded?
No. The converter runs inside your browser, so your files stay on your device. You can check: open your browser’s developer tools, go to the Network tab and convert something.
How small can it go?
Almost any size, but below about 50 KB most photos start to look blurry. Resizing to a smaller width helps keep them sharp.
Is it free?
Yes. Free pages show a small ad that pays for the site. Pro removes ads and lets you drop more files at once.
