Tips for the best result at 30 KB

How it hits 30 KB

We binary-search JPEG quality at your chosen dimensions and keep the best quality that is still under 30 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

Why does the website say my 29 KB photo is too large?

Usually it's a different rule you've missed — pixel dimensions, format (JPG vs PNG) or a minimum size. We count 1 KB as 1000 bytes, so our 30 KB output passes both 1000- and 1024-byte checks.

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.
