How to use the Compress PNG
- Add your PNG image.
- WebP output is preselected because it keeps transparency and compresses well. Choose PNG if you must keep the PNG format.
- Reduce the dimensions if the image is larger than needed.
- Press “Apply” and download.
Options for smaller PNG files
Because PNG is lossless, it has no quality slider. The two effective ways to shrink a PNG are reducing its pixel dimensions and converting it to a more efficient format. WebP is the best choice when transparency matters; JPG is fine for photos without transparency.
If you must keep the PNG format, choose PNG as output and reduce the dimensions. The tool re-encodes the image, which can remove unused metadata.
