Frequently asked questions

What's the best image size for WhatsApp?

WhatsApp compresses images to about 1.6MB anyway, but sending pre-compressed images preserves more quality. Aim for 500KB-1MB per image.

Will my photos lose quality?

Some quality is lost, but our smart compression preserves the visual quality you see on a phone screen.

Can I send multiple photos at once?

Yes. Batch process and download as a ZIP. WhatsApp allows up to 30 photos per send.
