Upload caps without guessing a quality slider.
Many sites still reject photos above a fixed size — often 50 KB, 200 KB, 500 KB, or 1 MB. ShrinkPicture's target-size control searches for a result that fits when it can. 200 KB is a frequent real-world limit when JPEG is required.

Common questions
Can ShrinkPicture compress a photo under 200 KB?
Yes. Choose a 200 KB target (or use this page’s link) and Smart mode searches for the smallest practical result that still fits your size limit when possible.
What if the photo still cannot fit under 200 KB?
Very large or detailed images may need a lower quality setting, a smaller maximum width, or Maximum mode. ShrinkPicture will explain when a target cannot be met without further tradeoffs.
Is 200 KB measured the same way upload forms measure it?
ShrinkPicture uses decimal units (200 KB = 200,000 bytes), which matches how many government and job portals state upload limits.
Do my photos leave my device?
No. Compression runs in your browser. We never receive the photo bytes, filenames, or EXIF from this tool.
Which format should I use for forms?
JPEG is usually the safest for visa, passport, DMV, and job upload portals. You can also set output format to JPEG after opening the compressor.
