How to Make Your Pictures Smaller for Email

Modern cell phones take incredibly beautiful pictures, but those pictures are huge! If you try to attach three or four of these giant photos to an email, your email app will usually say the file is too big.

To send them, you need to shrink the files down. This is called compressing. It squishes the picture file to make it smaller, but keeps it looking nice and clear.

You can shrink any photo using our free Image Compressor tool. You do not need to download any heavy apps to do it.

Just drop your big picture into the tool. It will instantly squeeze it down into a tiny size that easily fits into any email or text message.
