How do I compress an image to 50KB without losing too much quality?
Lower compression gradually and keep dimensions close to what the portal needs. Resize Relay balances quality and file size automatically toward the 50KB target.

FAQ
Can I keep the file as JPEG?
Yes. JPEG is the default and the most reliable format for hitting a strict 50KB cap.
Does compression happen on a server?
No. Compression runs in your browser, so your image never leaves your device.
Common situations for this workflow
Shrinking large camera or phone photos down to a strict 50KB upload cap.
Exam and registration forms that compress poorly when you try to do it by hand.
Repeated compression jobs where you want a fast, consistent 50KB result.
Checklist before you upload
Compress to JPEG when compatibility matters more than absolute compression efficiency.
Lower dimensions before pushing quality too low on detailed or text-heavy images.
Use the exported file rather than renaming a file extension manually.
Tips to hit the target faster
Compressing from the highest-quality original avoids compounding quality loss.
If a 50KB JPEG still looks too soft, try a slightly larger dimension reduction at higher quality.
Good for exam and signature uploads where a strict 50KB cap is enforced.
