How it works
- Choose or drag your image into the box above. The limit is already set to 2 MB.
- We try different quality levels and, if necessary, slightly smaller dimensions.
- Download your image: guaranteed 2 MB or smaller whenever it is possible.
When do you need an image of 2 MB?
Rental and housing platforms, insurance claims, online marketplaces and many upload forms accept photos up to 2 MB. Phone photos of 3–6 MB can almost always be reduced to 2 MB without a visible difference.
How we get to 2 MB
We first try to stay at the original dimensions and only lower the quality as far as needed. If an image cannot reach 2 MB with acceptable quality, it is scaled down step by step, because a smaller sharp photo looks better than a large blurry one.
