    How to make a PNG smaller

    PNG is a lossless format, so every pixel is preserved and the file only gets smaller if the picture itself gets simpler or smaller. In this tool a PNG stays a PNG, and you can reduce its size by setting a maximum width. A 3000 px screenshot displayed at 1200 px can drop by 80% or more.

    For photos saved as PNG, switch the output to WebP (or JPG if transparency is not needed): the result is typically 70–90% smaller. If your PNG cannot be reduced, the tool keeps the original file instead of making it bigger.

    Frequently asked questions

    How do I compress a PNG?

    Set a smaller maximum width or choose WebP/JPG output. Plain re-saving of a PNG rarely makes it smaller.

    Why does my PNG stay the same size?

    PNG is lossless, so the pixels are identical. Reduce the dimensions or change the format to shrink it.

    Does PNG compression keep transparency?

    Yes with PNG and WebP output. JPG output fills transparent areas with white.
