Open Shrink for free

Birdsuite Shrink is a free tool that compresses, resizes and converts images to JPEG, WebP or PNG in the browser. You process many images at once, pick a preset or a longest edge from 640 to 2560 pixels, and download everything as a ZIP. Images are never uploaded; EXIF and GPS data are removed on conversion.

The problem

Your phone photos are too big for the email, the form or the website. Many online compressors upload every image to their server, show ads and limit how many images you can do at once.

The solution

Shrink converts every image right in your browser. Pick "For email", "Balanced" or "Best quality", see straight away how much you save, and download the results one by one or as a ZIP.

How it works

  1. 1

    Drop your images

    Drag one or many images into the window or pick them — JPG, PNG, WebP and more.

  2. 2

    Pick a preset

    Choose "For email", "Balanced" or "Best quality", or set size, format and quality yourself.

  3. 3

    Download

    Download each image on its own or all of them as a ZIP. Too big for email? Carry on with Birdsuite Transfer.

Features

Many images at once

Drop as many images as you like. Shrink processes them in parallel; only your device sets the limit.

JPEG, WebP or PNG

Choose the output format yourself or use "Auto": PNG and WebP stay as they are, everything else becomes JPEG.

Location data removed

On conversion, EXIF data such as GPS position, camera and capture time is dropped. The photo keeps its correct orientation.

Three presets

"For email" (1280 pixels, 70 %), "Balanced" (1920 pixels, 80 %) and "Best quality" (2560 pixels, 90 %).

Size and quality

Cap the longest edge at 2560, 1920, 1280 or 640 pixels or keep the original; set the quality from 50 to 95 %.

Original when it's already optimal

If an image doesn't get smaller in Auto mode, Shrink keeps the original instead of inflating it.

Savings at a glance

For every image and the whole batch you see the size before and after and the saving in percent.

Everything as a ZIP

One click downloads all finished images as a ZIP file.

Data and privacy

Processing
Shrink decodes, scales and encodes your images with your browser's Canvas API, on your device.
Storage
We store no images. Our server only counts, anonymously, how many images were finished — no content, no personal data.
Processors
None for your images. The page itself is served by our server at Host Europe in Strasbourg, France.

Test it yourself: Test it yourself: open Shrink, switch off Wi-Fi and mobile data, and shrink a few images. Converting and downloading keep working, because nothing goes to a server.

What Shrink can’t do

  • You can't set a target size in KB, such as "under 100 KB", yet.
  • Which input formats open depends on your browser; HEIC photos from an iPhone don't work everywhere.
  • When Shrink keeps the original in Auto mode, its metadata stays; pick a fixed format if it must go.
  • Animated GIFs become a single still image.
  • There is no cropping, rotating or editing as in an image editor.

Frequently asked questions

Are my images uploaded?
No. Shrink processes the images in your browser; they never leave your device.
How many images can I shrink at once?
As many as your device can handle — there is no limit on our side. At the end you download them all as a ZIP.
Will I lose quality?
A little, depending on the setting: "Best quality" barely reduces, "Balanced" is the recommended middle, "For email" makes images small and fast. If an image doesn't get smaller in Auto mode, Shrink keeps the original.
Is location data removed?
Yes, for every image Shrink converts: EXIF data such as the GPS position is dropped. Only when Shrink keeps the original in Auto mode does it stay unchanged; pick a fixed format such as JPEG then.
JPG, PNG or WebP — which should I choose?
JPEG or WebP for photos, PNG or WebP for graphics, screenshots and images with transparency. WebP is usually smaller at the same quality, and "Auto" chooses for you.
Can I shrink an image to a specific size in KB?
Not directly yet. You get close by lowering the longest edge, for example to 1280 pixels, and reducing the quality; Shrink shows the new file size straight away.
