Tips for application and ID photos
Many portals require photos under 100 KB (and sometimes a fixed pixel size). Choose a max width of 800 px first for the sharpest result at 100 KB — fewer pixels means each one gets more detail.
Private by design
ShrinkVid never uploads your files. The page loads once, then all decoding and encoding happens on your device using the browser’s built-in WebCodecs API (hardware-accelerated video) and WebAssembly image codecs. That makes it safe for personal, confidential or work files — and there is no queue, no file size cap and no watermark. Read how it works.
Frequently asked questions
What if the image is still above 100 KB?
If the lowest reasonable quality is still too large, ShrinkVid reduces the dimensions step by step until the image fits.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. ShrinkVid runs entirely in your browser. Files are read and encoded on your own device with WebCodecs and WebAssembly, so nothing is uploaded, stored or seen by anyone else. You can even disconnect from the internet after the page loads and it keeps working.
Is it really free? Is there a watermark or file size limit?
It is completely free with no watermark, no sign-up and no server-side file size limit. Because processing happens on your device, the only practical limits are your device’s memory and speed.
