When to compress JPG photos

Phone photos are often 3–10 MB, far more than a website, email or online form needs. Compressing a JPG lowers its file size while keeping it looking the same at normal viewing size.

Choosing the quality level

80–85% keeps photos looking practically unchanged. 70% is a good choice for websites. Use 50–60% only when you must meet a strict size limit, and resize large photos first for the best result.
