How Novaxera's Compress PNG works
Novaxera's PNG compressor optimizes the PNG file losslessly: the encoding is made more efficient, but no pixel is changed. Width, height, colors and transparency stay exactly the same, so the optimized image is visually identical to the original. Only the way the data is stored inside the file changes.
Because no image detail is discarded, PNG savings are usually modest and depend on how the file was saved originally. The page shows the exact result, such as “Reduced by X% (old → new size)”. The upload is deleted after processing, and the optimized PNG is deleted automatically within 60 minutes.
Why use Novaxera's Compress PNG

Web graphics

Limitations to know
- Savings are usually modest because the optimization is lossless; some PNGs shrink very little.
- There is no resize or quality option, and one PNG is processed per upload.
- For large reductions, convert with PNG to JPG (transparency becomes white) or PNG to WebP (transparency kept).
Tips for better results
- Photos saved as PNG are often far smaller as JPG; convert them and then use Compress JPG.
- Keep PNG for graphics with sharp edges, text or transparency.
- For JPG, WebP and other formats, use the general image compressor.
Frequently asked questions
Does compressing a PNG reduce its quality?
No. Novaxera's PNG compressor optimizes PNG files losslessly, so every pixel, the dimensions and the transparency stay exactly the same. The optimized PNG looks identical to the original; only the way the data is stored becomes more efficient.
Why did my PNG barely get smaller?
Lossless optimization can only remove inefficiencies in how the PNG is stored, not image detail. If the file was already well optimized, Novaxera's PNG compressor may save little. For large reductions, convert the image to WebP, which keeps transparency, or to JPG, which fills transparent areas with white.
Does Compress PNG keep transparent backgrounds?
Yes. Novaxera's PNG compressor keeps transparency because the result is still a PNG and no pixels are changed. Transparent logos, icons and cut-out images keep their transparent areas after optimization, so they still sit cleanly on any background color.
Is it safe to compress PNG files on Novaxera?
Yes. Novaxera's PNG compressor receives files over an encrypted HTTPS connection, deletes the upload once optimization finishes, and deletes the optimized PNG automatically within 60 minutes. Your images are not shared or used for anything else.
Is Compress PNG free, and what are the limits?
Yes. Novaxera's PNG compressor is free, with no signup and no watermark. Each upload is one PNG file of up to 50 MB, and the width and height are never changed because there is no resize option.
Can I compress a PNG on my iPhone or Mac?
Yes. Novaxera's PNG compressor works in any modern browser on macOS, Windows, Linux, iPhone, iPad and Android. Upload the PNG, wait for optimization, and download the result. Nothing needs to be installed, and no account is required.
