A PNG that is “fine on your computer” can still be huge in an email or a web upload. This page shrinks a PNG so it takes less space, without turning it into a blurry JPEG.

How to compress a PNG

  1. Upload a PNG up to 50 MB.
  2. Pick how hard to shrink it, and whether to drop hidden extra info.
  3. Press Convert file and download the smaller PNG.

Fast is a good default. Smallest spends more time for a tighter file.

What you get

You get another PNG. Same width and height. Same transparency. Usually a smaller number of bytes, which is what you want before you attach it or put it on a site.

When this helps

  • Screenshots and interface graphics
  • Logos and icons with flat color
  • Any PNG you are about to upload somewhere with a size cap

It will not turn a photo into a tiny JPEG. If you need that, export a JPEG from an editor instead.
