How to compress image to 50 KB

  1. 1

    Add your image

    Drop a JPG, PNG or WebP. You can add several images and compress them with the same settings.

  2. 2

    Set JPG, quality and maximum width

    Choose JPG as the output format, then start with quality 70% and a maximum width of 800 px. Most photos land under 50 KB there.

    Tip: Pixel size matters more than quality. Halving the width roughly quarters the file size.

  3. 3

    Check the size, then download

    The result shows the old and new dimensions and file size. If it is still over 50 KB, lower the quality or the width a little and run it again.

Tips for a better result

Scanned documents
A phone photo of a document is often 3,000 px wide. 1,000 px is enough to read printed text, and much smaller.
PNG will not get there
PNG is lossless, so the quality slider does nothing for it. Switch the output to JPG to reach 50 KB.
Crop before you compress
Cutting away background around a face, signature or document leaves fewer pixels to store, so the file can stay sharper at the same size.
Location data is removed
The image is redrawn from its pixels, so camera and GPS details are not carried into the new file.

Questions about Compress Image to 50 KB

Can Docmint guarantee an image under 50 KB?

It shows you the exact new size before you download, so you always know. There is no automatic target yet: you adjust quality and width until the size fits, which usually takes one or two tries.

Can I compress several images to 50 KB at once?

Yes. Drop them all in; each is compressed with the same settings and listed with its new size. They download together as a ZIP.

Will the image look worse?

Some detail is lost at small sizes; that is the trade-off. Faces and printed text stay readable at the settings suggested here. Zoom into the preview before you upload it anywhere official.

Is my file uploaded?

No. Docmint reads and processes the file inside your browser. It is never sent to a server, so there is nothing for anyone to store, scan or lose.
