Benefits

Private by design

Your image stays on your device while PNG Compressor works. PNG Compressor never sends it to a server, so confidential work stays confidential.

Instant results

PNG Compressor finishes most jobs in under a second because the work happens on your own hardware.

No signup, no limits

Use PNG Compressor as many times as you want. PNG Compressor asks for no account, adds no watermark and keeps no paid tier gating the output.

Works offline

Once the page has loaded, PNG Compressor keeps working without a connection, which helps on flights and locked-down networks.

Who it is for

For designers

Designers use PNG Compressor to prepare assets for handoff without installing software: compress PNG images by reducing dimensions on a shared or locked-down machine.

For marketers

PNG Compressor helps marketers publish campaign assets quickly, since your image never leaves the laptop it was created on.

For freelancers

PNG Compressor helps freelancers send client deliverables quickly, since your image never leaves the laptop it was created on.

How it works

PNG Compressor loads your image into memory, applies the change you requested to the underlying data rather than to a screenshot of it, and writes a fresh copy for download. Your original stays untouched on disk, and every step of PNG Compressor happens inside your browser sandbox.

Frequently asked questions

Is PNG Compressor free to use?

Yes. PNG Compressor is completely free with no account, no trial and no usage cap. Every feature on this page is available on the first visit.

Does PNG Compressor upload your image to a server?

No. PNG Compressor processes your image inside your browser, so it never reaches a DocTools server. That also means the tool keeps working if your connection drops mid-task.

Is there a file size limit?

The practical ceiling is your device's available memory rather than a server quota. Files up to roughly 100 MB work comfortably on a typical laptop in PNG Compressor.

Do I need to install anything to use PNG Compressor?

No installation is needed. PNG Compressor runs in Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari, on desktop and on mobile, with no extension or plugin.

Can I use PNG Compressor on a phone or tablet?

Yes. The PNG Compressor interface adapts to small screens and supports touch input, though very large jobs are faster on a desktop browser.

What happens to your image when I close the tab?

It is discarded. PNG Compressor keeps everything in temporary browser memory, so closing the tab removes every trace of the session.
