Why compress images?
Government forms
UAN, passport, visa and e-district portals require images under 50–200KB.
Website speed
Large images slow websites. Google ranks faster pages higher in search results.
Email attachments
Gmail limits attachments to 25MB. Compressed images send faster and save space.
WhatsApp & social
WhatsApp auto-reduces quality. Compress first to control quality yourself.
