How to resize a photo
A phone photo is easily 4000 pixels wide and 3 to 8 MB. For a website, an email or an upload form that is far too much: it uploads slowly, pages load slowly and some forms refuse the file. A photo 1920 pixels wide is sharp on any screen and usually only 300 to 600 KB.
Which size should you pick?
- Website or blog: 1920 pixels for a full-width photo, 1200 pixels for a photo within the text.
- Email or WhatsApp: 1600 pixels is plenty to view on a phone or laptop.
- Web shop: 1000 to 1500 pixels, so zooming in still works.
- Printing: do not resize. Choose None under Resize and a high quality.
Fit in makes the photo fit inside the box you enter, landscape or portrait, without cutting anything off. Smaller photos are never enlarged.
Smaller in MB too
The quality decides how much space a photo takes. At 80 you see no difference from the original, while the file is often half the size. If it has to stay under a fixed limit, set a maximum file size in KB under Advanced.
The location (GPS) and other camera data are removed by default. Your photos are processed in memory on our own server and deleted right after.
How it works
Three steps to resize, optimize or convert any number of images.
Upload images
Drop, paste or pick any number of JPG, PNG, WEBP, GIF, TIFF, AVIF, HEIC or SVG files.
Choose the settings
Pick a size, format and quality. Save them as a profile so they are ready next time.
Download
Every image is processed on the server, in memory. Download them one by one or all at once as a ZIP.
Features
Powered by libvips, the same engine large photo sites use. Nothing is stored, nothing goes to third parties. The demos below are live: try them.
Resize
Set a width, a height, a percentage or a box to fit in. Give one side and the other follows the aspect ratio. "Exact" forces a size and crops the rest with smart cropping.
Need the same size for a whole batch? Drop them all at once; the settings apply to every image.
Try it: change the width on the right.
Optimize
Choose a quality from 1 to 100, or set a maximum file size in KB and let the tool find the highest quality that fits. Metadata such as GPS location is stripped by default.
Lossless mode for logos and screenshots, mozjpeg for JPG, and fine control over chroma subsampling, effort and sharpening under Advanced.
Try it: drag the line and move the quality slider.
Convert
Turn anything into JPG, PNG, WEBP or AVIF, or keep the original format. The format you pick stays selected for every image you add, no surprises.
WEBP is typically 25–35% smaller than JPG at the same quality and works everywhere; AVIF is smaller still for modern sites.
Try it: pick a format and watch the file size.
Crop
Open any image from the list and drag a crop box over it, free or locked to a ratio. Social presets for Instagram, Facebook, X, LinkedIn and YouTube set both the crop and the exact output size.
The crop only applies to that one image; everything else keeps following your global settings.
Try it: drag the box or its corners, or pick a preset.
Frequently asked questions
How do I resize a photo without making it blurry?
Resize to the size it will be shown at, for example 1920 pixels for a website, and keep the quality between 75 and 90. You will see no difference from the original. Smaller photos are never enlarged.
Can I resize several photos at once?
Yes. Drop up to 50 photos at a time. They all get the same settings and you download them one by one or together as a ZIP.
Does it work with iPhone photos (HEIC)?
Yes. HEIC photos are read, turned upright and saved as JPG by default, so you can use them anywhere.
Are my photos stored?
No. They are processed in our server’s memory and deleted right after. There is no account and no watermark.
How big can a photo be?
Up to 25 MB per photo, which is plenty for photos from phones and most cameras.
