You’ve picked the photos you want to send, but they’re too large. SizeCap helps you make them smaller without installing an app or adjusting every photo by hand.

SizeCap is built for one combined size limit across a batch, not for shrinking each file to its own target. [See when SizeCap is the right tool](https://sizecap.com/guides/when-sizecap-helps/), and when another compressor is a better fit.

Add your photos, choose how much space they can take up together, and let SizeCap find settings that fit. It saves them as JPEGs, ready to download one by one or together in a ZIP file.

## Your photos stay with you

Everything happens in your browser. Your photos aren’t uploaded to a server, and you don’t need an account. Compression and downloads are free.

## A few things to know

You can add JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF, BMP, or AVIF files. The result is always JPEG, so transparent areas turn white and animated GIFs become a single still image.

Smaller files can mean less detail or smaller dimensions. SizeCap uses the same quality and resizing settings for all your photos, and it tells you if it can’t get them under your chosen limit. Have a look at the results before you send them.
