What is JPG?
JPG (or JPEG) is the most widely supported image format in the world. It uses lossy compression to keep photos small, works in every browser, app, printer and operating system, but does not support transparency.
What is PNG?
PNG is a lossless image format that preserves every pixel exactly and supports full transparency. It is ideal for logos, screenshots, graphics and text, but photos saved as PNG are usually much larger than JPG.

Frequently asked questions
Will converting JPG to PNG improve the quality?
No. PNG preserves exactly what is in the JPG, but it cannot restore detail that JPG compression already removed. It does prevent further quality loss when you edit and re-save.
Will my JPG get a transparent background?
No. JPG has no transparency, so the PNG will have the same solid background. Removing a background requires a separate background remover.
Will I lose quality converting JPG to PNG?
No. PNG is lossless, so every pixel of the decoded JPG image is preserved exactly.
Are my images uploaded to a server?
No. All conversion happens inside your browser on your own device. Your photos are never uploaded, stored or seen by anyone, which also makes conversion faster and lets it work on any connection.
Is it really free? Are there limits?
Yes, it is completely free with no sign-up and no watermark. Because nothing is uploaded, there are no file size or file count limits. Very large batches are only limited by your device's memory.
Can I convert many images at once?
Yes. Select or drop as many images as you like. They are converted in parallel, and you can download them one by one or all together as a ZIP file.
Is the photo metadata (EXIF) kept?
No. Converted images do not contain the original metadata such as GPS location, camera model or date. This protects your privacy when sharing photos. The orientation is applied, so photos stay the right way up.
