How to use Compress PNG

Create a lighter PNG while preserving its dimensions and comparing the result with the original file size.

Three simple steps

  1. Choose a valid PNG or animated PNG up to 25 MB.
  2. Select lossless compression or a 256, 128, or 64 color palette.
  3. Compress the image and download it when the result is smaller.

PNG compression choices

  • Lossless mode preserves decoded pixel colors.
  • Palette modes can reduce size further but may change gradients and subtle colors.
  • Animated PNG frame order and timing are preserved.

Frequently asked questions

Will compression resize the image?

No. Pixel dimensions stay unchanged.

Does animated PNG remain animated?

Yes. APNG frames and their timing are retained.

Why is no download offered?

A result is offered only when it is smaller than the source file.
