Tips for the best result at 10 KB

How it hits 10 KB

We binary-search JPEG quality at your chosen dimensions and keep the best quality that is still under 10 KB. If even low quality doesn't fit and you haven't fixed the dimensions, we reduce the resolution a step at a time, so you get a sharper small image rather than a blocky large one.

Frequently asked questions

Can a photo be under 10 KB and still look good?

A small passport-style photo (around 200×230 px) usually fits in 8–12 KB at acceptable quality. Larger photos will be scaled down to fit.

Is my photo uploaded anywhere?

No. The image is resized inside your browser and never leaves your device — important for ID photos and signatures.

Does it remove location and camera data (EXIF)?

Yes. The output is a freshly encoded image, so GPS location, camera model and other EXIF metadata from your phone are not carried over.

Is this an official tool for any government or exam portal?

No. It's an independent free tool. Always follow the exact size, dimension and format rules published in your form's instructions.
