How the 20 KB limit is reached
PhotoReducer tries different quality levels and keeps the best one whose file stays under 20 KB. For strict limits like this one, large photos are also scaled down automatically until they fit.
Who asks for 20 KB files?
Many government job portals and exam registration sites cap the photo upload at 20 KB, and scanned signatures often have the same limit. This tool finds the sharpest version of your image that fits under it.
Frequently asked questions
Will the image still look good at 20 KB?
At very strict limits like this one, some quality loss is visible and large photos are scaled down automatically. The tool always keeps the sharpest version that fits.
Does it change the format of my file?
The output is JPG by default — the format virtually every form accepts — and you can switch to WebP. JPG, PNG, WebP and AVIF are accepted as input.
Is my photo uploaded anywhere?
No. Everything runs locally in your browser with WebAssembly — your image never leaves your device, which makes this safe even for ID photos and documents.
