About the Compress Image to 10 KB

10 KB is about as small as a usable image gets — it is asked for by a handful of strict exam portals, thumbnail slots, and legacy systems. At this size the dimensions matter far more than the quality slider: you almost certainly need a small, tightly-cropped image, not a full-resolution photo. This tool reduces both on your device and outputs a JPG that clears the 10 KB line.

Frequently asked questions

Can any photo really fit in 10 KB?

Only if it is small in pixels. A full-size camera photo will look badly degraded at 10 KB — crop it tight and resize it down to a few hundred pixels first, then target 10 KB for an acceptable result.

Which format is smallest?

JPG, by a wide margin — this tool outputs JPG by default, which is the only realistic way to reach a target this tight.
