Which image tool do I need?
- A form says "max 100 KB": use the Image Compressor. Type the target size and it finds the highest quality that fits. See how to compress an image to 100 KB.
- Exact pixel dimensions or a crop: use the Image Resizer & Cropper, which has social media aspect presets.
- iPhone photos won't open: the HEIC to JPG Converter turns HEIC and HEIF files into JPG or PNG.
- Switching between JPG, PNG and WebP: use the Image Format Converter, which handles batches.
- Remove location data before posting: the Image Metadata Remover strips EXIF, GPS, XMP and IPTC data without re-compressing the photo.
- Cut out a product or portrait: the Background Remover.
- Copy text out of a screenshot: Image to Text (OCR).

.icofile plus PNG and Apple touch icons.
Private by design
These tools decode, edit and re-encode your images inside your browser tab, so your photos are never sent to a server. That matters for ID scans, family pictures and anything with location data. There's no account, no daily limit and no watermark on the results.
Two tools download extra files the first time you use them. The Background Remover fetches an MIT-licensed AI model, and Image to Text fetches OCR language data. The HEIC converter loads a roughly 2 MB decoder. All of these are downloads to your device, and your images still stay local.
JPG, PNG, WebP and HEIC in one minute
JPG is lossy and works everywhere, which makes it the default for photos and upload forms. PNG is lossless and supports transparency. It's best for screenshots, logos and text, but large for photos. WebP can be lossy or lossless, supports transparency and is usually smaller than JPG at the same quality. All current browsers support it, but some older upload forms still reject it. HEIC is what iPhones save by default. It's compact, but many Windows PCs, websites and browsers outside Safari can't open it, so convert it to JPG before sharing. More in HEIC vs JPG.
One side effect to know: the compressor, resizer and converters draw a fresh image, so EXIF details like the camera model and GPS location aren't carried into the new file. If you only want the metadata gone and the pixels left untouched, use the metadata remover instead.

Frequently asked questions
Are my images uploaded anywhere?+
No. All the image tools here process files in your browser. The Background Remover and OCR download a model or language data to your device the first time, but your images aren't sent anywhere.
How do I get a photo under 100 KB?+
Open the Image Compressor, set the target to 100 KB and choose JPEG. If quality alone can't reach the target, allow it to shrink the dimensions. A 1200-pixel-wide photo usually fits comfortably.
Is 1 KB 1,000 or 1,024 bytes?+
It depends on who's counting. Windows reports file sizes using 1,024, macOS uses 1,000, and upload forms vary. The Image Compressor lets you choose either, and if you're unsure, 1,000 is the safer target because it gives a slightly smaller file.
How do I convert HEIC to JPG on Windows?+
Drop the photos into the HEIC to JPG Converter and download them as JPG files or a ZIP. Nothing needs installing, and the photos are turned the right way up.
Does compressing or converting remove GPS location?+
Yes, for files that are re-encoded. The compressor, resizer and converters don't copy EXIF data such as GPS into the new file. One exception: if a photo is already under the target size, the compressor keeps it unchanged, metadata included. To be sure, use the metadata remover, which shows what was there and confirms it's gone.
Which format is smallest for photos?+
WebP is usually the smallest at the same visual quality, and JPG comes close behind with the widest support. Avoid PNG for photos, because it's lossless and often several times larger.
Can I process many images at once?+
Yes. The compressor, converters and HEIC converter accept batches, and you can download the results as a ZIP.
