Language menu lists every planned locale
The header is no longer two pills. Open the language button: live languages keep you on the same tool. Languages that are not live say coming soon and do not open a 404.
Select folder is a real button; batch compress is on the home page
The compressor now shows Select folder next to Upload Image, same size. Home copy and FAQ say batch compress: a folder uses one cap for every file. There is no extra URL — it is the same tool.
Smart compress now keeps shrinking
Smart mode used to re-encode once at quality 80 and keep the original if that was not smaller. It now aims for about 58% of the source and keeps searching quality (then scale) until the file actually drops.
Canonical URLs now use compressimages.net
Sitemap, robots, and share tags point at https://compressimages.net. The compressor itself is unchanged.
Home page says smart shrink or any KB you type
The home title and FAQ now spell out the two modes: smart compress, or a cap such as 20KB through 500KB typed in the box.
Four short sections on the home page link to the size hub, 200KB, 500KB, and the format tools. There is still no page for every chip.
Folders, batch progress, email totals, and optional PNG keep
Choose a folder; only images and HEIC are kept. A batch shows Compressing 2/5 and can be cancelled. Two or more target-size files print the combined original and output size.
Target size can try to stay PNG. Unchecked, a transparent PNG still becomes JPG and the page says so. The compare slider no longer crops the frame.
Results show target, output, resize, and why a cap failed
A finished job now prints the cap you typed, the real byte count, and whether the long edge changed.
If the file still cannot fit, the line says too many pixels or the target is too small. It does not sneak over the limit.
An empty target no longer runs smart compress
On Target size, an empty box, 0, or a non-number used to start smart shrink and look like success.
It now waits. You can still drop files; the result says to type a size or tap a chip first.
Local compression, any size, HEIC, and ZIP
Files shrink in the browser. Type a KB or MB cap and the output stays at or under that number.
iPhone HEIC is decoded on your device, then encoded to the same cap. A batch downloads as one ZIP.
