Why compress large photos to 1 MB?

Email services and messaging platforms frequently throttle or reject file attachments exceeding 20 MB or 25 MB.

Trimming photos to under 1 MB ensures you can attach dozens of photos without hitting inbox quotas or experiencing failed uploads.

Common Use Cases for 1 MB:

DSLR photo sharing, client proofing, large email attachments

Unlike traditional tools that force you to guess a quality percentage (e.g. 70%), our algorithm tests multiple quality parameters to hit under 1 MB with the highest possible visual clarity.
