This helps with storing and sharing images, as it allows for a good balance of image quality and file size. The compression technique used by JPEG discards some of the image data, which can result in a lower-quality image, but it takes up less space on a disk or memory. JPEG is mainly used for photos and other types of digital images that need a large variety of colors. It is an image format that uses lossy compression to decrease the size of the file. JPEG stands for Joint Photographic Experts Group.
