The 50KB Upload Limit Challenge
Almost every Indian government portal (including state PSCs, UPSC, and banking portals) specifies a strict 50 KB ceiling for candidate photos. If your file is 50.1 KB, the upload will fail.
How Our Image KB Reducer Works
Our tool uses an iterative binary search compression algorithm inside your browser canvas:
- It calculates the file byte size in memory.
- Gradually steps down JPEG quality without altering pixel dimensions.
- Stops as soon as the file size is guaranteed under your chosen limit (e.g., 48 KB).
- Your image is processed locally on your device for absolute privacy.
