Questions
- How much smaller will my image get?
- A photo straight off a phone usually loses 60–80% at quality 80, with no difference you can see at normal size. Screenshots and flat graphics compress less.
- Will it lower the resolution?
- No. Compressing keeps every pixel and changes how precisely each one is stored. Use the resizer if you want fewer pixels.
- Does it strip EXIF data?
- Yes, as a side effect. The compressed file is rebuilt from the decoded pixels, so location and camera metadata do not survive.
