1 MB is a typical attachment or form-upload limit and leaves plenty of room for detail, so quality loss is minimal.
How to compress an image to 1 MB
Drop one or more images and cutbg re-compresses each one on your device until it is close to 1 MB, keeping as much quality as possible. Download them free — no watermark, no sign-up.
Are my files uploaded?
No — compression runs entirely in your browser; your images never leave your device.
