FAQ

What is the difference between PNG and JPG?

PNG supports transparency and is lossless — great for icons and screenshots. JPG is smaller but has no transparency — better for photos. If you do not need transparency, converting to JPG or WebP saves a lot of space.

What is the best way to compress a PNG?

PNG itself has limited headroom. The most effective options are reducing dimensions or converting to WebP, which is typically 30%–70% smaller.

Are my images uploaded?

No, everything is processed locally in your browser.

Can I use an iPhone HEIC or HEIF photo?

Yes. HEIC and HEIF photos are decoded locally in supported modern browsers and exported as JPG, PNG or WebP.
