Frequently asked questions
Is my data uploaded?+
No. This tool is designed to run locally in your browser.
Do I need an account?+
No signup is required for CodeVella tools.
What JPG quality should I use?+
For web images, 70% to 85% is often a good balance between file size and visual quality. Use lower quality for thumbnails and higher quality for product or portfolio photos.
Will JPG compression remove transparency?+
JPG does not support transparency. If your image needs transparent areas, keep it as PNG or WebP instead of exporting to JPG.
Why is JPG better for photos than PNG?+
JPG uses lossy compression that works well for photos and complex gradients. PNG is usually better for transparency, icons, screenshots, and sharp UI graphics.
