Need to resize a photo for a form? ResizePing helps you hit your kilobyte target on Android. Get it on Google Play.
Registration systems for recruitment and entrance tests often enforce upload limits, commonly requiring photo 30kb for online form submissions. Smartphone cameras capture portraits exceeding several megabytes, prompting upload rejections. You can resize photo for exam form requirements on Android without desktop software. ResizePing reduces file weight.
Steps
- Open ResizePing and choose the portrait or document photo you need.
- Set Mode to Target size.
- In Target (KB), type 30.
- Pick the format your application asks for: JPG, PNG or WEBP. Leave Strip metadata on.
- Review the Projected size displayed for your photo before you run.
- Tap Run to compress the image.
- Check the result size before uploading to your form.
If 30 KB is too small for the photo
Very small targets on big photos may not be reachable. When that happens, ResizePing displays: "Can't get this under 30 KB. Try a larger size or lower resolution."
Lower the resolution first, then try the target again:
- In ResizePing, switch Mode to Dimensions or Percent and scale down the image dimensions.
- Tap Run to save the smaller image.
- Open the smaller result, switch Mode to Target size, type 30 in Target (KB), and tap Run.
Lowering the pixel resolution first gives the tool less to compress when you aim for 30 KB.
What to know
- ResizePing works on photos. It does not have an ID, face, or signature mode, and it does not change backgrounds or check portal rules.
- Never uploaded to our servers.
- The projected size is an estimate; verify the real size on the result screen before uploading.
- The quality slider spans 1 to 100, with output in JPG, PNG or WEBP. Location data is stripped by default.
- Process a single photo or run batch files together.
- Built-in presets include 100 KB, 1 MB, 1080 px, and passport 35x45 mm.
- The saved file can land a little above the number you type, by roughly 0.5 to 2% in our tests. If the form has a hard 30 KB limit, type a slightly lower target, such as 29, and check the saved size.
- History keeps your past runs.
- Free with one small banner ad.
