Frequently Asked Questions

Is SocialShrink completely free?

Yes, 100% free with no limits. Compress and download as many images as you need. We display non-intrusive ads to keep the service free.

Are my images uploaded to a server?

Never. All image processing happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your photos never leave your device — no privacy risk.

What image formats are supported?

Input: JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF, BMP, TIFF. Output: WebP (recommended), JPEG, PNG, and AVIF (in modern browsers). WebP typically saves 30–50% vs JPEG at equal quality.

What are the recommended Instagram image settings?

Instagram recommends 1080×1080px for square posts, 1080×1350px for portrait, and 1080×566px for landscape. File size under 1MB in WebP or JPEG 80%+ quality. SocialShrink handles all of this automatically with one click.

How do I compress images for TikTok?

Select the "TikTok" preset. It automatically sets 1080×1920 (9:16 vertical), optimizes to under 500KB in WebP format — ideal for TikTok cover images and photo posts that load fast and get more views.

Can I use SocialShrink on my phone?

Absolutely. SocialShrink is fully mobile-optimized and can be installed as a PWA (Progressive Web App) on iOS and Android — tap "Add to Home Screen" for a native app experience.
