Compress Image to 50 KB
Shrink a photo to 50 KB or less, automatically.
🔒 Everything above runs on your device — your file is never uploaded anywhere.
Compress Image to 50 KB reduces a JPG or PNG to 50 kilobytes or less, a size often asked for on ID and photo uploads. Private and automatic.
Photo fields on application and registration forms frequently cap uploads at 50 KB. A passport-style photo with an even background fits easily at reasonable dimensions, and the tool keeps quality as high as the limit allows. If the form also wants exact pixel dimensions, resize the image first with the Image Resizer, then compress it here.
The tool searches for the highest JPG quality that fits under the limit, and only reduces the dimensions if quality alone is not enough. The result is always a JPG, and the whole process runs in your browser, so the photo is not uploaded.
How it works

Frequently asked questions
How do I reduce an image to 50 KB?+
Upload it here. The tool automatically picks the highest quality that keeps the file at or under 50 KB, and shrinks the dimensions only if it has to.
Can I set the dimensions as well?+
Use the Image Resizer to set exact pixel dimensions first, then compress here to hit the file size.
Is my photo uploaded?+
No. The image is processed in your browser and never sent to a server.
Will the picture look worse?+
Some quality is lost, as with any compression. The smaller the target, the more visible it is. For very small limits, a photo with a plain background compresses best.
