Guide
Good to know
How Arche makes PNG smaller
Arche re-encodes each PNG in the same format and at the same pixel size, keeps transparency, and removes metadata such as EXIF. You only download a result that is smaller than your original; if a file can't be made smaller, Arche tells you and you keep the original.
When PNG is the wrong format
PNG is best for screenshots, logos and graphics with sharp edges or transparency. A photo saved as PNG is usually several times larger than the same photo as JPG or WebP, so convert it with the free PNG to JPG or PNG to WebP tool first, then compress the result.
