Image & Photo

Bulk Image Resizer

Resize a whole batch of photos at once — set a target width, height, percentage, or longest-side limit, and the tool processes everything in your browser without an upload.

Drop your photos here

or click to browse — JPG, PNG, or WebP up to 50 MB each, 25 files per batch.

Private by design. Images are decoded, resized, and re-encoded entirely in your browser using the Canvas API. Nothing is uploaded.

What is a bulk image resizer?

A bulk image resizer changes the pixel dimensions of a whole stack of photos at once. Unlike a compressor (which keeps the same dimensions and lowers quality to shrink the file) or a converter (which changes the file format), a resizer specifically reduces width and height. Smaller dimensions almost always produce a smaller file as a side effect, but the goal is reach: a 4000-pixel-wide phone photo loaded into a 800-pixel-wide blog post is wasting bandwidth and slowing down the page. This tool lets you set a target by fixed width, fixed height, percentage, or a longest-side fit (which never enlarges, only shrinks). Everything runs in your browser through the Canvas API — no upload, no signup, no server-side queue.

How to bulk-resize images

1
Drop in your photos
Drag up to 25 JPG, PNG, or WebP files onto the upload area, or click to pick from your device. Each file's original dimensions appear next to its name once it loads.
2
Pick a resize mode
Use Fixed width when you want every output exactly N pixels wide (heights vary). Use Percentage to scale uniformly. Use Fit longest side when you have a mixed batch of portrait and landscape and want them all to fit a max bounding box.
3
Set the target value
Type a number or click a quick-pick chip. 1280 is a strong default for blog images, 1920 for full-screen hero photos, 1080 for Instagram-sized squares.
4
Choose the output format
Keep original format if you just want smaller copies. Switch to JPG to flatten transparency, PNG to preserve it, or WebP to get the smallest files at the same visible quality.
5
Resize and download
Click Resize all to process the queue. Each row shows its before and after dimensions and file size. Download files individually, or use Download all to grab the whole batch with a small delay between files so the browser doesn't block them.

How browser image resizing works

1. Decode each input file via createImageBitmap() — native, no library needed.
2. Compute target width and height based on mode (fixed/fixed/percentage/fit) and the source aspect ratio.
3. Allocate a 2D canvas at the target dimensions.
4. Set imageSmoothingQuality = 'high' so the browser uses a higher-quality downsample.
5. drawImage(bitmap, 0, 0, w, h) — the browser performs the resize.
6. canvas.toBlob(format, quality) re-encodes the resized canvas in the chosen format.

The browser's Canvas API does not expose Lanczos or other premium downsampling algorithms by name, but with imageSmoothingQuality set to 'high' it uses a multi-step bilinear downsample that is visually indistinguishable from a Photoshop save-for-web at the same dimensions. The tradeoff every other resizer makes — server-side processing in exchange for premium algorithms — is not worth it for the 99% case, and it costs you privacy and a network round-trip per file. This tool stays in the browser.

Common resize jobs

Source	Best resize setting
iPhone photos (4032×3024) for a blog post	Fixed width = 1280. Each image lands at 1280×960, roughly 1/3 the original file size and indistinguishable in a centered article. 1280 is the safe default for blog hero images.
Mixed portrait and landscape product shots for an e-commerce grid	Fit longest side = 1080. Both orientations end up with the longer dimension at 1080, so the grid renders consistently regardless of camera tilt. Best for grids that need uniform 'visual weight'.
Old digital camera dump (5MP–10MP)	Percentage = 50. Cuts each dimension in half (so the file area drops to 25%), which is plenty for archive viewing while saving meaningful storage. Useful when source dimensions vary wildly.
Already-small thumbnail (320×240)	Fit longest side will leave it untouched (the tool never enlarges). If you actually need to upscale, use a dedicated upscaler — bilinear stretching gets blurry fast. Resizers shrink. They don't make a small image bigger without quality loss.

When to use a bulk resizer

Trim a folder of phone photos before uploading them to a blog, CMS, or knowledge base.
Downsize a product photo dump for an e-commerce listing where the platform caps at 2048 px.
Standardize a mixed batch of headshots so every team-page photo has the same visual size.
Cut bandwidth costs on a Cloudflare or S3-backed image CDN by serving smaller masters.
Prepare email-newsletter assets that some clients will reject above a certain pixel size.
Generate thumbnail sets for a portfolio or gallery without firing up Photoshop.
Reduce a deck of screen captures to a manageable size before pasting into a Google Doc.

Frequently asked questions

Are my photos uploaded anywhere?

No. Decoding, resizing, and re-encoding all happen in your browser via the Canvas API. You can verify in your browser's network tab that there is no upload after the page loads.

What's the difference between this and an image compressor?

A compressor keeps the same pixel dimensions and lowers quality to shrink the file. A resizer reduces the pixel dimensions, which usually shrinks the file as a side effect. If your images are already the right size but too heavy, use the compressor. If they're way too large in pixels, resize first.

Will resizing make my image blurry?

Downsizing keeps detail proportional to the new dimensions and looks crisp. Upsizing (making something bigger than the source) is what causes blur, and this tool never enlarges in Fit-longest-side mode. The pixel modes will enlarge if you ask, but the browser's bilinear stretch starts to soften past about 150% of the original.

Why don't transparent PNGs look right when I switch to JPG?

JPG has no transparency. When you convert a transparent PNG to JPG, the tool fills the transparent areas with white before encoding so they don't render as black or random colors. Keep PNG (or pick WebP, which supports transparency) to preserve transparency.

What's a sensible default width for the web?

1280 px is the modern blog-post default — it covers high-density 'retina' displays at the 640-px container size most CMS templates use. 1920 covers full-bleed hero images. 1080 is the Instagram-square era default. Anything wider than 2400 is wasted on most viewports.

Can I batch-resize HEIC photos?

Not directly in this tool — the bulk resizer expects formats that browsers can decode natively (JPG, PNG, WebP). For HEIC, use the Image Converter first to turn them into JPG or PNG, then drop the converted files here.

How big a batch can I run?

Up to 25 files per batch, each up to 50 MB. The work is sequential in your browser, so very large source images and modest hardware will feel slower; mid-range laptops handle 25 phone photos in a few seconds.
