Your files stay on your device.

Drop a JPG image to convert it to PNG

JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, GIF and BMP images up to 50 MB; HEIC and TIFF where this browser can decode them.

Images are processed on your device. Nothing is uploaded, and your original is never changed.

What to know before converting JPG to PNG

  • It does not restore quality: JPG removed some detail when the photo was first saved. PNG stores what is left without further loss, but it cannot bring back what is gone. Existing JPG artefacts stay visible.
  • The file often gets larger: PNG is lossless, so photos saved as PNG are usually several times bigger than the JPG they came from.
  • No automatic transparency: PNG can store transparency, but a JPG has none to begin with. The background of your photo stays exactly as it is.

Frequently asked questions

Will converting JPG to PNG improve image quality?

No. Detail that JPG compression removed earlier cannot be recovered. The PNG is a lossless copy of the image as it is now, including any existing artefacts.

Why is my PNG bigger than the JPG?

JPG saves space by discarding detail; PNG keeps every pixel exactly. For photos, that usually means a considerably larger file.

Does the PNG get a transparent background?

No. Transparency is not created automatically. The PNG shows exactly what the JPG showed, including its background.

What if my file is not a JPG?

The tool checks the actual file content, not just the name, so a PNG renamed to .jpg is recognised as PNG. A PNG or WebP image still opens: the page says what it really is and converts from that format. AVIF, GIF and BMP open too, and HEIC and TIFF where the browser can decode them; other files are not accepted.
