Squish -Online Image Compressor

imglift offer a smart and easy-to-use image compression tool designed to reduce the size of image files without significantly affecting their visual quality. Whether you're working on a WordPress website, preparing a design project, or managing digital photos from a camera, this tool helps keep your image sizes in check.

What Is Image Compression?

In simple terms, image compression is the process of reducing the number of bits required to store or transmit an image. This is done through one of two methods:

• Lossless compression: Keeps the image exactly as it is while removing unnecessary data like repeating patterns or empty areas. File size becomes smaller, but image quality stays the same.
• Lossy compression: Reduces the image size by permanently removing parts of the image that may not be noticeable to the human eye. This results in much smaller files but with some reduction in quality, depending on the compression level.

imglift gives you both performance and flexibility by using lossy methods optimized for the web and storage.

Why Use imglift?

Image files—especially from digital single-lens reflex cameras—can be large. A single JPEG might take up several megabytes, slowing down websites and taking up unnecessary hard disk drive space. This becomes an even bigger issue when managing multiple images across devices, blogs, or cloud platforms.

imglift helps by compressing large files quickly, making it ideal for:

• Reducing thumbnail size for blogs and ecommerce.
• Saving space on phones and laptops.
• Speeding up image loading times on websites.
• Preparing computer files for upload or sharing.

How imglift Works

The tool works entirely in your browser—no need to send files to an external server. Here's what you do:

1. Click the Upload button or drag images directly into the tool.
2. imglift reads and parses your files, whether they're in PNG, JPEG, or GIF format.
3. Each file is compressed using a canvas-based algorithm that adjusts image dimensions and applies efficient data compression.
4. A real-time progress slider shows the compression status.
5. Once completed, you can download each file separately or grab all compressed files in a ZIP.

No installation, no account needed.

Supported File Formats

imglift is compatible with common image file formats, including:

These formats are widely used in blogs, social media, design work, and digital archives, making the tool suitable for almost any project.

Benefits for WordPress and Developers

For WordPress users, image optimization is key to improving site performance. Compressed images reduce loading time, decrease server load, and improve SEO. Developers and designers working with assets can prepare images without bloating the final computer file.

Even casual users benefit—compressing a group of large photos into lighter files makes them easier to store, upload, or email.

File Safety and Control

All compression happens in the browser. Your original files are never uploaded to any external server, and your data stays on your device. If you're not happy with a result, just remove the image and upload it again—no risk, no tracking.
