What Compress Image for Email does
Compress Image for Email is built for reducing image file size before an upload, email, form submission, or website publish.
The page keeps the workflow simple: add images, choose a target or quality level, process locally, and download the smaller files.
- Best for: Gmail attachments, Outlook attachments, Client previews, Family photo sharing
- Input: JPG, PNG, WebP, and browser-supported images
- Output: compressed image
Settings and output control
The default target is around 500 KB. Image content varies, so browser encoding aims for a practical result rather than an exact byte count.
If a photo is still too large, choosing a stronger quality setting or a smaller output format usually has the biggest impact.
- Files stay on this device by default
- Batch export is available after processing
- Metadata cleanup is available when privacy matters
Browser support and practical limits
The browser-safe limits are designed for reliability: up to 50 desktop images, a 32 MB file-size guard, and an 8192 x 4096 px image-size guard.
Mobile browsers often have less memory available, so smaller batches are recommended on phones and tablets.
- Desktop batch: up to 50 images
- Max image size: 8192 x 4096 px each
- Mobile: smaller batches recommended
