How to compress an image to 1 MB
Drop your photo above and the tool is already set to a 1 MB target. It exports as JPEG and automatically searches for the highest quality that still fits under 1 MB, shrinking the dimensions only if it has to. Each result shows its final size, so you can confirm it is under 1 MB.
Small file, good quality
Reaching a size limit for an email attachment, a web form or an upload box is the most common reason to compress to 1 MB. Because the tool tunes quality intelligently instead of just slashing it, your photo stays as sharp as possible at that size - and it all happens privately in your browser.
