Frequently asked questions

How do I reduce a photo to 50 KB?

Set the maximum size to 50 KB and choose your photo. The tool searches for the highest JPEG quality that fits under 50 KB and reduces the dimensions only if necessary.

My form says 20 KB to 50 KB. How do I meet the minimum?

Tick the minimum size option and enter 20 KB. The tool raises the quality first, and if the image is still too small it pads the file so it is accepted.

Is 1 KB 1000 or 1024 bytes?

Most Indian application portals count 1 KB as 1,024 bytes, and so does this tool, so a 50 KB file here will be accepted as 50 KB on the portal.

Are my photos uploaded to a server?

No. The image is processed by your own browser. It never leaves your phone or computer, so it is safe for ID photos and personal pictures.
