Compress a photo to 20 KB
Many application forms only accept a photo under 20 KB. This tool shrinks your photo to 20 KB or less, keeping it as sharp as possible: it first lowers JPG quality and only reduces pixels if it has to.

How to compress a photo to 20 KB
- Choose your photo (JPG, PNG, WebP or iPhone HEIC).
- Keep the target at 20 KB, or add a minimum such as 10 KB if the form gives a range.
- Press Create and download the JPG. The size is shown before you download.
Tips
- If the form also fixes the size in cm or pixels, use “Photo for exam forms” instead — it does both.
- Crop away empty background first for a sharper result at the same KB.
- The result is always at or under the target, never above.
Questions
Will my photo be uploaded?
No. Everything happens inside your browser; the file never leaves your phone or computer.
The form says 10–20 KB. What do I do?
Set the target to 20 and the minimum to 10. If the photo comes out smaller than 10 KB, invisible padding is added so it meets the minimum without changing how it looks.
Does it work on mobile?
Yes, in Chrome, Edge, Safari and Firefox on Android and iPhone.
हिंदी में
क्या मेरी फोटो अपलोड होती है?
नहीं। सारा काम आपके ब्राउज़र में होता है, फोटो आपके फोन/कंप्यूटर से बाहर नहीं जाती।
फॉर्म में 10–20 KB लिखा है, क्या करूँ?
Target 20 और minimum 10 रखें। फोटो 10 KB से छोटी बनी तो बिना दिखावट बदले उसे 10 KB तक बढ़ा दिया जाता है।
