FAQ
Honest answers about how the tools work.
For tools that run in your browser, no. Your file is processed on your device instead of being sent to a server. The tool will tell you if a particular feature works differently.
Yes. The tools are free to use in your browser, and you don't need an account just to complete a simple task.
Files you open in a browser-based tool are processed on your device, so there is no normal upload step. If a tool needs server-side processing, its interface will tell you.
Yes. The tools are designed to work in modern mobile and desktop browsers. For larger files, performance can depend on your phone or computer.
No. You can use the tools without creating an account.
Some tools do the work directly on your device. Large PDFs, images or complex files can therefore take longer on a phone than on a desktop.
Some files are already compressed, so there may not be much room to reduce them further. Try another compression setting or format if the tool provides one.
