Short FAQ

Why resize a photo to 500KB?

500KB is a common limit on exam, university, and job portals. Targeting 500KB ensures your upload passes strict file-size checks.

Is my photo uploaded?

No. All processing runs in your browser using HTML5 canvas and client-side encoding. Your files never leave your device.

Best format for 500KB?

JPG is a great default for photos. Try WebP for even smaller files at similar visual quality. PNG is best for graphics, logos, and transparency.
