Compress images offline — the TinyPNG alternative with no upload
TinyPNG is a great compressor, but it uploads your images and limits free batches. 1FileTool shrinks PNG, JPEG and WebP files locally with no batch caps — plus 264 more tools, for one fixed price.

Why people look for a TinyPNG alternative
TinyPNG is a popular web-based image compressor for PNG, JPEG and WebP. It is free with batch and file-size limits, offering a paid subscription and API, and it works by uploading your images to its servers.
Your images are uploaded to compress them
TinyPNG processes pictures on its servers, which means each image — product shots, screenshots, client photos — is uploaded before it comes back smaller. Local compression avoids that entirely.
Batch and file-size limits
Free use caps how many images you can drop at once and how large they can be. For a folder of high-resolution photos, you end up splitting the work into awkward batches.
A subscription or API bill for volume
Compress at any real volume and TinyPNG steers you toward a paid plan or metered API usage — a recurring cost for what is, fundamentally, a single repeated task.
Image compression only
TinyPNG does one job. Resizing, converting formats, stripping EXIF metadata, or anything beyond PNG/JPEG/WebP means reaching for additional tools.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions about switching from TinyPNG to 1FileTool.
Is 1FileTool a free TinyPNG alternative?
Yes. Image compression and every other tool are free for up to 8 files per day. For unlimited batches, Pro is a one-time purchase from $29 — no subscription or per-image API charges like TinyPNG at scale.
Does 1FileTool compress images offline?
Yes. Unlike TinyPNG, which uploads each picture to its servers, 1FileTool compresses PNG, JPEG and WebP files directly on your computer, so it works with no internet connection.
Is my data private with 1FileTool?
Completely. Your images never leave your device, there is no account or API key to set up, and nothing is tracked — a clear contrast with uploading photos to a web compressor.
Are there batch or size limits like TinyPNG?
On Pro there are no batch counts or file-size caps — you can compress a whole folder of high-resolution images in one go, limited only by your own disk and CPU.
Does 1FileTool do more than compress images?
Yes. Alongside compression it includes 37 image tools (resize, crop, convert, remove metadata) and 265+ tools overall covering PDF, video, audio, text and privacy tasks.
