Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between resizing and compressing an image?
Resizing changes the physical pixel dimensions (e.g. from 4000x3000px to 1200x900px), which reduces the number of pixels. Compressing reduces the file size (bytes) by optimizing color data and discarding redundant info while keeping the dimensions unchanged. Both methods make photos load faster.
How do I resize an image without stretching or distorting it?
Keep the 'Maintain Aspect Ratio' checkbox enabled. When you enter a new width, Picy automatically calculates and adjusts the height proportionally to maintain natural proportions.
Will resizing my image reduce its file size?
Yes. Reducing the pixel resolution significantly reduces file size because there are fewer total pixels to store. For example, scaling a 4000x3000 photo to 2000x1500 reduces pixel count by 75%, often slashing file size by 70-80%.
Can I resize photos on mobile phones?
Yes. Picy is completely responsive and optimized for mobile Safari, Chrome, and Firefox on iOS and Android devices.
Are my images kept private?
Yes, 100%. Picy processes your photos completely inside your browser's local memory. Your files are never uploaded to our servers or stored anywhere.
