Frequently Asked Questions

How do I compress a photo to 20 KB for an SSC form?

Upload your photo, type "20" in the target KB field, and click Compress. The tool will resize and recompress automatically to fit within that limit while keeping the photo clear enough for face recognition.

Will compressing an image to 10 KB ruin the quality?

For a typical passport‑style photo, 10 KB is very small and may appear slightly soft. If your form allows 20–30 KB, choose a higher target to preserve more detail and avoid blur.

Can I set a custom target size that is not a round number?

Yes, simply type any value like 15 or 35 KB in the input field; the tool works with any number you need, not only the preset buttons.

Is Compress Image to KB free and private?

Yes — it is 100% free, needs no sign-up, and everything runs in your browser; your data never leaves your device.
