# A TinyPNG alternative that keeps images in your browser

ToolSugar is our product. We are not affiliated with TinyPNG. We checked its public pages on 2026-11-07, and its limits and prices can change.

ToolSugar's Compress Image is a TinyPNG alternative that shrinks WebP, JPG and PNG files in your browser, so nothing is uploaded. It removes EXIF and GPS data. TinyPNG also handles AVIF and claims files up to 80% smaller. We did not run a head-to-head test.

## Questions

### What is TinyPNG's file limit?

Its home page lists up to 20 images at 5 MB each.

### Why did ToolSugar not make my image smaller?

A file that is already compressed may not shrink. Try the Strong level, or convert the file to WebP.
