How to convert a JPG to PNG?
-
Add your JPGs
Drag your .jpg or .jpeg photos into the area, a single one or a whole series.
-
Check the format
PNG is already selected as the output; you can choose JPG or WebP instead if needed.
-
Download your PNGs
Save each image or get the whole set in a ZIP file.
A PNG faithful to your JPG
No added loss
PNG stores the image pixel for pixel: no extra compression is applied.
Ideal before editing
Work on a PNG to avoid the degradation caused by repeated JPG saves.
Batch conversion
Convert dozens of photos at once and download them as a ZIP.
Nothing is uploaded
Your photos are converted in your browser and never leave your device.
Why switch from JPG to PNG?
Some sites, page-layout software, or design tools require PNG files. PNG is also the right choice for an image you'll edit several times: every new JPG save recompresses it and degrades it a little more, while a PNG stays identical from one save to the next.
Converting to PNG doesn't make the background transparent
This is a common misconception: JPG has no transparency, so the resulting PNG keeps exactly the same background, white or colored. The conversion doesn't create a cutout, and it doesn't restore quality already lost during the original JPG compression. To get a transparent background, use the “Remove Background” tool, which produces a cutout PNG directly.
A heavier file is normal
PNG compresses losslessly: for a photo, it's often several times heavier than the original JPG. That's the price of a format faithful down to the pixel. If size becomes an issue for sending, keep the JPG or use “Compress Image” instead.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does converting JPG to PNG improve quality?
No. PNG keeps the image as it is, without degrading it further, but it can't recover details already lost during the original JPG compression.
Will my image have a transparent background?
No, the background stays the same as in the original photo. To make it transparent, use the “Remove Background” tool.
Why is my PNG heavier than the JPG?
Because PNG is a lossless format: it stores every pixel exactly, which takes up more space than JPG compression.
Can I convert JPGs to PNG on my phone?
Yes, the tool works in a mobile browser; the PNGs save like any other downloaded file.
