APK errors

Photo is too large

If a form or site says the file is too large, you need to reduce the file size (KB/MB) or the dimensions (pixels).

One compression is often enough.

  • Read the limit: for example 500 KB, 1 MB, or 1200 pixels.
  • Choose the photo on nibrascode.com/en/image.
  • Lower the quality slider and watch the size.
  • Download as JPG. A PNG screenshot shrinks a lot as JPG.
  • If it is still large, reduce the dimensions (pixels).
  • If the document is a PDF, use Compress PDF.

Phone cameras take 4–10 MB photos; forms often accept 1–2 MB.

Questions

How do I make a photo smaller? Lower the quality in Compress photo and download a JPG. Free, and it does not go to a server.

Will quality drop a lot? On screen the eye often sees no difference. You choose with the slider.

What if the PDF is large? Use the Compress PDF tool.
