Question 1

How does image compression work?

Accepted Answer

We use your browser's Canvas API to re-encode images at a lower quality. This reduces file size while maintaining visual quality. No files leave your device.

Question 2

Which format gives the smallest file size?

Accepted Answer

WebP typically produces the smallest files at the same visual quality, followed by JPEG. PNG is lossless and usually larger.

Question 3

Will compression reduce image quality?

Accepted Answer

At quality settings above 70%, the difference is barely noticeable. Lower settings will show more artifacts, especially in JPEG and WebP formats.
