ctrlhq

Image converter

Shrink an image before you send it.

Convert to WebP, AVIF, HEIC, JPEG, PNG or TIFF and watch the file size change as you move the slider.

A 5 MB screenshot is too big for most uploads, and online converters mean handing your images to a stranger's server.

Drop an image on ctrlhq's shelf and convert it right there. Pick a format, move the quality slider and see the new size before you save.
