Compress or Convert Image to 8MB Online — Free Photo Compressor

Reduce a very large photo to under 8MB while keeping it pristine. An 8 megabyte budget suits high-megapixel images that must fit a large upload cap without visible compression. Drop your photo in and download the result. It doubles as a free photo-to-8MB converter — compress or convert any JPG or PNG to 8MB in one click.

To compress a photo to 8MB, upload it and the tool re-encodes the image at the highest quality that still fits under 8MB, then hands you the file to download. "Compress to 8MB" and "convert to 8MB" are the same job — it works on any JPG, PNG or WebP photo and needs no sign-up.

100% private — your images never leave your device. No upload, no sign-up.
