Frequently Asked Questions
How does this tool shrink my image to under 100KB without ruining clarity?
Our tool utilizes an iterative browser-side canvas algorithm. It calculates the image dimensions and gradually reduces JPEG compression quantization levels in tiny increments until the binary payload fits strictly under 100KB while preserving maximum facial and textual clarity.
Are my photos uploaded to any external server during compression?
No. Your privacy is 100% protected. All image processing takes place locally on your own computer or smartphone using HTML5 Canvas and the JavaScript FileReader API. No image data is ever uploaded or stored externally.
Which image file formats are supported?
You can upload JPG, JPEG, PNG, or WebP images. The tool outputs a universally compatible, optimized JPEG image calibrated under 100KB that is accepted by all standard government and job portals.
Why do government portals reject photos that are even slightly over 100KB?
Online application portals handle millions of applicants and use automated server filters that immediately reject any file exceeding the exact byte threshold (e.g., 100KB). Using our target-calibrated tool guarantees your file passes automated portal validation.
