How to Reduce Photo Size to 20 KB (Phone and PC)

Phone photos are 3–5 MB, but forms often want 20 KB. Here is the quickest way to shrink a photo without making it blurry.

A 20 KB limit sounds tiny, but a passport-style photo only needs about 200–400 pixels wide, and at that size 20 KB keeps a face perfectly clear.

On your phone

  1. Open Reduce Image Size in KB in Chrome or Safari.
  2. Tap Choose images and pick the photo from your gallery.
  3. Type 20 and pick KB. The tool finds the best quality under 20 KB.
  4. Tap Download, or Save to Photos to put it straight in your gallery.

On a PC

  1. Drag the photo onto the page, or paste it with Ctrl+V.
  2. Set the target size and download. Do many photos at once and get a ZIP.

When the form gives a pixel size too

Exam forms often want both, for example 200 × 230 px and 20–50 KB. Use the photo & signature resizer to set both, or the ready pages for IBPS & SBI, SSC and NEET.

Why not just use a screenshot?

Screenshots add borders and make faces small, and many forms reject them. Crop the real photo instead.

Questions people ask

How do I reduce a photo to 20 KB without losing quality?

Lower the JPG quality first and shrink the pixel size only as much as needed. The reducer does both automatically.

Can I reduce a signature to 10 KB?

Yes. Turn on whitening for signatures; white areas compress very well.

My form wants 20–50 KB and my file is 8 KB. What now?

Use Increase Image Size in KB, which raises the file size without changing the picture.
