FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between resize and compress to 20 KB?
Compressing lowers quality first; resizing lowers the pixel dimensions first. For small form photos, resizing usually looks cleaner because 20 KB is spread over fewer pixels.
What dimensions will my 20 KB photo have?
Typically around 250–400 px wide for a portrait, depending on detail. If your form also requires exact pixels, use the Pixels mode afterwards or crop first.
Do exam forms need exactly 20 KB?
Usually they set a maximum (and sometimes a minimum) size. The right numbers depend on the form, so always check its instructions.
Is my photo safe?
Yes. Resizing happens on your device and the image is never uploaded.
