Compress a JPEG Under 500 KB

Also works for images, pictures, and photos — not just JPEGs.

To get a JPEG under 500 KB: open SnapPress, select images, then use the Quality slider or Target Size to hit 500 KB and download.

Common requirement for marketplaces and CMSes. Use SnapPress to get under 500 KB, privately on your device.

  1. Open pre-filled: SnapPress (target 500 KB).
  2. Select your image or picture.
  3. Adjust Quality slightly if you need extra savings.
  4. Confirm the output is < 500 KB and looks good in the preview.
  5. Download (or ZIP for many files).

Tip: 500 KB usually preserves excellent detail at quality ~85–90 for 1600–2400 px wide images.
