Lumagely compresses JPEGs with MozJPEG, the encoder trusted by performance engineers, finding the sweet spot between size and quality. Adjust the quality, or switch to Target file size to hit an exact KB limit — all on your device.

How to compress JPEG images

  1. 1Drop your JPG/JPEG files in.
  2. 2Tune the quality slider, or pick Target file size for an exact limit.
  3. 3Download each compressed JPG, or the batch as a ZIP.

Good to know

  • MozJPEG typically saves 30–60% versus a camera or phone JPEG.
  • Use Target file size mode to fit upload or email limits.
  • Stripping metadata is on by default to save even more.

Compress JPEG — questions

Does compressing a JPEG reduce quality?

Slightly, but at the default quality it’s invisible. Lower the quality for smaller files, or raise it to stay closer to the original.

How small can I make a JPEG?

Use Target file size mode and set a KB limit — Lumagely finds the highest quality that fits.

Can I compress many JPEGs at once?

Yes. Add a batch, compress them together and download everything as a ZIP.
