Large photos slow down websites and WhatsApp chats. You rarely need the full camera file. This guide shows how to compress images so they look the same but weigh much less — using the free Tech Bichar Image Compressor.
Start with the right format
Use WebP or JPEG for photos. Use PNG only for logos, screenshots and sharp text. WebP is usually 25–35% smaller than JPEG at the same look.
A simple recipe
- Open the image compressor.
- Drop your files. Set quality to 80% and max width to 1920px for web or 1280px for blog posts.
- Export WebP if the destination supports it, otherwise JPEG.
- Download and check the preview. If you see banding, raise quality to 85–90%.
Why this is safe
The compressor runs in your browser. Photos never upload to a server, so invoices and personal pictures stay on your device. You can also turn images into a PDF with the image to PDF converter.
