Compress image under 2 MB

Compress image under 2 MB in seconds — drop your photo, drag the quality slider until the size is below 2 MB, and download. Everything happens locally in your browser.

Common use cases

  • Stay below the 2 MB email attachment limit
  • Squeeze high-resolution photos for the web
  • Meet upload caps on forms and portals

How it works

  1. 1

    Upload image

    Drop a JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF, AVIF, or supported image file into the tool.

  2. 2

    Process in browser

    QuickList applies the conversion, compression, resize, crop, or analysis step locally whenever possible.

  3. 3

    Preview output

    Compare quality, size, dimensions, colors, or format before downloading.

  4. 4

    Download or share

    Download the result or upload it to QuickList to create a shareable URL.

Common reasons to stay under 2 MB

Many email clients cap attachments at 2 MB. Online forms (visa, government, education) often enforce the same cap. Compressing below 2 MB keeps you safely inside the limit.

Lossy vs lossless

JPG and WebP use lossy compression — small quality losses for big size wins. PNG compression is lossless, so PNGs are best for screenshots and graphics with sharp edges.
