How to compress a JPG

  1. Upload a JPG

    Choose one .jpg or .jpeg file up to 50 MB.

  2. Compress

    Novaxera re-encodes the photo and reports the exact reduction.

  3. Download

    Save the smaller JPG; it is deleted automatically within 60 minutes.

How Novaxera's Compress JPG works

Novaxera's JPG compressor decodes your photo and saves it again as a JPEG at quality 75 with encoder optimization enabled. The width and height stay exactly the same, so the savings come from more efficient encoding rather than from shrinking the picture. How much the file shrinks depends on the original.

After compression, the page shows the exact result, for example “Reduced by X% (old size → new size)”. Camera metadata (EXIF), which can include GPS location, is generally not carried over to the compressed JPEG. The upload is deleted after processing, and the result is deleted within 60 minutes.

Limitations to know

  • A JPG that was already saved at low quality may shrink very little.
  • iPhone HEIC photos are not accepted; set the camera to “Most Compatible” to save JPGs.

Tips for better results

  • Starting from a PNG photo? Convert it with PNG to JPG, then compress the JPG.
  • For even smaller files on websites, try JPG to WebP.
  • Compressing PNG, WebP or other formats? Use the general image compressor.

Frequently asked questions

How much will my JPG shrink?

The saving depends on the photo. Novaxera's JPG compressor re-encodes at quality 75 with optimization, so results vary from file to file. A JPG that was already saved at a low quality setting may shrink only a little. The exact percentage and sizes are shown after compression.

Does compressing a JPG change its dimensions?

No. Novaxera's JPG compressor keeps the width and height exactly the same. Only the encoding changes, so a 4000 × 3000 photo stays 4000 × 3000. There is no resize option on this page, so resize the photo elsewhere first if you need smaller pixel dimensions.

Will compressing remove the GPS location from my photo?

Generally yes. Novaxera's JPG compressor generally does not carry camera metadata (EXIF) over to the compressed JPEG, and EXIF can include GPS location, camera model and capture time. This makes compressed photos more suitable for sharing publicly, but check the file if location privacy is critical.

Is it safe to compress personal photos on Novaxera?

Yes. Novaxera's JPG compressor receives photos over an encrypted HTTPS connection, deletes the original upload once compression finishes, and deletes the compressed JPG automatically within 60 minutes. Photos are not shared or used for anything else.

Is Compress JPG free, and what is the size limit?

Yes. Novaxera's JPG compressor is free, needs no signup and adds no watermark. Each upload is one JPG or JPEG file of up to 50 MB. To compress several photos, upload them one at a time.

Can I compress a JPG on my phone?

Yes. Novaxera's JPG compressor works in Safari, Chrome and other modern browsers on iPhone, iPad and Android. Choose a JPG from your photos or files, compress it and tap Download, with no app to install.
