How is this different from compressing under 1MB?
This page targets a 1MB output to keep the most quality the limit allows. If you only need the file below 1MB, the compress-under-1MB guide is a better fit.

FAQ
Can I set 1MB exactly?
Yes. Choose MB mode and target 1MB directly in the size control.
Are my images uploaded anywhere?
No. Processing happens in your browser, so your image never leaves your device.
Common situations for this workflow
Portals and application forms that allow images up to 1MB.
High-resolution photos that should stay near full quality while meeting a 1MB cap.
Document scans where 1MB preserves the most detail the portal will accept.
Checklist before you upload
Switch the size control to MB mode and target 1MB directly.
Keep dimensions high - at 1MB you rarely need to downscale much.
Use JPEG or WebP; both reach 1MB while keeping strong quality.
Tips to hit the target faster
Unlike a sub-100KB cap, 1MB lets you keep close to full resolution and quality.
If you just need to get under 1MB rather than exactly at it, see the compress-under-1MB guide instead.
WebP often looks identical to JPEG while sitting comfortably under 1MB.
