1 MB is a generous limit, used by site builders, shop platforms and apps that want good product and portfolio photos without accepting raw camera files.

At this size a photo can stay at full phone resolution in most cases: the tool mainly removes the inefficiency phone cameras leave in their files, so the result is visually identical to the original.

It’s the right target when people will zoom into the image — product shots, portfolio pieces, property photos — and a smaller limit would visibly soften them.

How to use it

  1. Drop in your photos.
  2. The 1 MB target is already set; each file is compressed just enough.
  3. Download them and upload to your shop or app.

Frequently asked questions

My photo was already under 1 MB. What happens?

It’s kept as it is. There’s no point re-encoding a file that already fits, and doing so would only lose quality.

Will buyers be able to zoom in on my product photos?

Yes, that’s what this size is for: at 1 MB a typical photo keeps its full resolution, so zoom on a product page still shows detail.

Can I compress RAW or TIFF files?

Not directly: browsers can’t decode RAW. Export a JPG or PNG from your camera app or editor first, then compress that.
