Compress an image to 100 KB

Works in your browser: what you type or choose stays on your device and is not uploaded anywhere.

Questions

Why is the file 97 KB and not exactly 100 KB?

100 KB is a limit, so the tool stops just below it. It also counts 1 KB as 1000 bytes, so sites that count either way accept the file.

Will people notice the compression?

Rarely: at 100 KB a phone photo is usually saved at 1000–1600 px with 70–90% quality, which looks clean on a screen.
