📊 Size Guide

What Size Photo is Needed for Each Use?

Each platform and form has different file size limits. This guide will help you choose the right target size:

Utility Target Size Recommended Resolution Format
📋 SNMPTN / SBMPTN / CPNS 100 KB 400×600 px JPG
📄 Online Job Application Form 100–200 KB 600×800 px JPG
🎓 Upload a photo of your diploma/transcript 200–500 KB 800×1200 px JPG / PNG
📸 WhatsApp Profile Photo 100–500 KB 500×500 px JPG
🛒 Tokopedia / Shopee Product Photos 500 KB – 1 MB 1000×1000 px JPG / WebP
📱 Instagram Profile Photo 200–500 KB 600×600 px JPG
💌 Email Attachments 500 KB – 1 MB Free JPG
🖨 Print Physical Photos 2–5 MB (do not compress) Min. 300 DPI JPG / TIFF
⚠️ Note: Photos that will be printed should NOT be compressed, as high quality is required for sharp prints. Compression is only recommended for digital purposes such as uploading forms, social media, and sending via email.

🎯 When to Use a Compress

When Do You Need to Compress Photos?

There are many situations in Indonesia where photo size is a real problem — and this tool is here to solve it:

📋 SNMPTN, SBMPTN, CPNS & Scholarship Registration

Nearly all new student admissions and civil servant selection forms require a photo size of up to 100 KB. Photos from modern phones can be 3–8 MB — far exceeding the limit. This tool solves that problem in seconds.

💼 Online Job Application & HR Portal

Recruitment portals like JobStreet, Kalibrr, and corporate HR systems often limit the size of profile photos and documents. Compress your CV photos to 100–200 KB to avoid upload failures.

🛒 Upload Product Photos to the Marketplace

Tokopedia, Shopee, Bukalapak, and other marketplaces have product photo size limits. Compress photos for faster uploads without sacrificing visual quality, which is crucial for attracting buyers.

📱 Save Storage & Internet Quota

Sending large photos via WhatsApp uses up the recipient's data and phone storage. Compress photos first to keep chats light without sacrificing on-screen quality.

🌐 Upload to Website & Blog

Large images slow down website loading. Google PageSpeed ​​recommends web images under 500 KB. Compress images before uploading to WordPress, Blogspot, or your website platform for better performance.

❓ FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Your photos are 100% secure. This tool uses the HTML5 Canvas API, which runs entirely in your browser — no data is sent to our servers. The compression process takes place in your device's RAM. This means sensitive photos like ID cards, diplomas, or selfies remain private and cannot be accessed by anyone but you.
There are two possibilities: (1) The original photo is already smaller than 100KB — no compression is necessary. (2) The photo has many intricately detailed areas, requiring very aggressive compression, which can significantly degrade the image quality. In these cases, our tool stops at the minimum quality (10%) to ensure the image is still viewable. Try removing the photo's metadata or converting the PNG to JPG first if the image is still too large.
Yes, JPG compression does reduce quality—it's an unavoidable trade-off for file size reduction. However, our tool uses binary search to find the highest possible while still achieving the target size. For a face photo on a form (100KB), the quality loss is usually invisible on screen, even though the image data has been reduced.
Yes, this tool accepts PNG as input. However, please note that the output is always in JPG format because JPG is much more efficient for photos than PNG. PNG is suitable for graphics with transparent backgrounds, not photos — compressing a PNG photo to 100KB will produce much better results if it is converted to JPG first (which our tool does automatically).
On your Android phone, open this page in Chrome or Firefox. Tap the "Select Photo" button and choose from Gallery or File Manager. The compression process will run directly on your phone. Once complete, tap "Download Photo" — the file will be saved to your phone's Downloads folder. Easy, no need to install any apps.
Photos from modern phone cameras (12–108 MP) are typically between 3 MB and 15 MB per image. Some flagship phones can produce RAW photos up to 80 MB. An online form requiring 100 KB means you'll need to compress the photo to 30–150 times its original size—which this tool can do automatically.
