Why LocalJPG?
Private by architecture
Files never upload — conversion runs in your browser. Most converters send photos to a server first.
Works offline
Installs as an app after the first visit. Airplane mode? Still converts.
Batch + ZIP, free
Drop a whole folder, download one ZIP. Others gate batches behind accounts or paid plans.
EXIF preserved
Capture date, GPS, orientation survive the conversion. Compressors often strip them.
tl;drDrop your photo below — each JPG is fitted to 2 MB or less. Common target for LinkedIn profile uploads, university platforms, and social-network avatars.
2 MB is one of the most common silent caps on professional and educational platforms. It's the limit on LinkedIn profile photos, many course-management systems, and a lot of corporate HR portals.
At 2 MB a phone photo retains near-original quality even when zoomed in. The compression is light and the result is virtually indistinguishable from the original on any screen.
For batch uploads (say, 50 product photos), pick 2 MB once and drop the whole folder. Each photo is fitted individually — small ones stay at quality 85, larger ones compress down to fit.
Common questions
Why does LinkedIn cap profile photos at 2 MB?
Storage and bandwidth at scale. LinkedIn re-renders profile photos in many sizes for desktop, mobile, and emails — the input cap keeps that pipeline cheap.
Will quality look obviously worse than the original?
Almost never. At 2 MB, JPEG compression is light. You'd need to zoom 200%+ to see any difference, and on screen at normal viewing it looks the same.
Can I keep EXIF for archival?
Yes — EXIF (date, GPS, camera) is preserved by default.
