About this Preset

When uploading portfolio images, scanned property documents, or email attachments, strict upload ceilings of 1 MB (1024 KB) are common. Raw camera photos from modern iPhones and Android flagships can reach 15 MB to 25 MB, causing mail bounce-backs and upload errors. Our in-browser 1MB compressor cleans unnecessary EXIF metadata, quantizes color distribution, and brings the image neatly below 1 MB in milliseconds.

How to Resize in 4 Simple Steps

  1. Upload your heavy photo or document scan.
  2. The engine reduces the size to just under 1024 KB.
  3. Inspect before and after side-by-side.
  4. Download your web-ready image.
