Frequently Asked Questions

A 1024 KB limit is used by high-quality image platforms and blogging sites that need sharp visuals while controlling storage size.
The tool uses a smart compression loop: it starts at 95% JPEG quality and decreases by 5% each iteration until the file size falls below 1,048,576 bytes (1024 KB). If compression alone isn't enough, the tool will prompt you to reduce dimensions as well.
Yes, but the tool will automatically convert it to JPEG to reach the target size, since PNG compression is inefficient for photographic content. If you need transparency preserved, manually reduce the image dimensions before compressing.
