- Free with no signup, watermark or daily limit.
- A photo of about 200 x 230 pixels fits comfortably in 50 KB, so large camera photos are also scaled down a little when needed.

Frequently asked questions
How do I compress an image to 50KB?
Add your image and click Compress. Toolbyte tests different quality levels, and scales the picture down slightly if needed, until the file is 50 KB or less. The final size is shown before you download.
When do I need an image under 50KB?
Many exam registration and job application portals ask for a passport-style photo under 50 KB.
Will the image still look good at 50KB?
For its pixel size, usually yes. Quality is kept as high as the limit allows. Very large photos may be made smaller in pixels, which is normal for form uploads.
What format is the result?
JPG, because it is accepted almost everywhere and compresses photos best. PNG and WebP files are converted to JPG and transparent areas become white.
Is it safe to upload my ID or signature here?
Nothing is uploaded. The compression runs inside your browser, so your picture never leaves your device and we cannot see it.
What if the result is still above 50KB?
Toolbyte tells you when a limit cannot be reached without making the picture extremely small. Crop away empty space first with the crop tool, or try the next larger size page.
