About this Preset

Most email providers (such as Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo Mail, and corporate Exchange servers) restrict total attachment size to 20 MB or 25 MB. Sending several uncompressed smartphone photos quickly exceeds this threshold, causing bounce-backs or slow sending. Our email photo compressor scales images to an optimal balance of under 500 KB each, allowing you to attach dozens of photos without hitting inbox quotas.

How to Resize in 4 Simple Steps

  1. Upload photos you want to email.
  2. The tool compresses each photo under 500 KB.
  3. Check that text and faces remain sharp.
  4. Download all as a single ZIP archive to attach effortlessly.
