Reduce Photo Size in KB on Mobile
Do it all on your phone, from gallery to download, with no app.
Advanced (optional): exact pixels or minimum KB
Many forms ask for pixels as well as KB. Leave empty if yours does not. Examples are common sizes only – always use the size your form states.
✅ Done! Your images are ready
A phone-only workflow
You do not need to install anything or send the photo to a computer. A phone browser such as Chrome or Safari can do the whole job. Here is how it goes on a typical phone.
- Open this page in your browser and tap Select Images.
- Choose Photo Library or Gallery rather than the Camera option if you want an existing picture.
- Type the KB size and tap the green button.
- Tap Download. On Android the file goes to Downloads; on iPhone you can save it to Files or Photos.
Mobile problems and fixes
- I cannot find the file: check your browser’s Downloads list.
- The file is not in my gallery: on Android, move it from Downloads to Pictures using Files; on iPhone, tap Save Image.
- The page is slow: choose a few photos at a time; each is processed on the phone itself.
- My iPhone photo is HEIC: the tool converts it; see the HEIC page.
To clear space on the phone itself, see how to free up phone storage.
