Frequently Asked Questions

Is this JPG compressor completely free?

Yes, 100% free with no limits on file size, image count, or number of compressions. No registration, no watermarks, no hidden fees.

Are my photos uploaded to a server?

No. All compression happens locally in your web browser using client-side JavaScript. Your photos never leave your device, ensuring complete privacy and security.

What is the difference between JPG and JPEG?

JPG and JPEG are the same image format. JPEG stands for Joint Photographic Experts Group. The .jpg extension exists because early versions of Windows limited file extensions to three characters. Both work identically.

How much can I reduce my JPG file size?

Typical compression reduces JPG files by 40–80% depending on the image content. Photos with large uniform areas compress more efficiently than highly detailed images.

How do I compress JPG for email?

Upload your JPG files and the tool automatically optimizes them. Compressed images are typically small enough for email attachments (most email services allow 20–25 MB).

Do I need to install any software?

No. The tool runs entirely in your web browser — no downloads, no plugins, no installation. Works on Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge.
