How it works

  1. 01

    Add your JPG files

    Drop, paste or pick any number. The files stay in this tab, and the page sends them nowhere.

  2. 02

    Check the new sizes

    PNG keeps every pixel, so most files grow. Each row shows the new size.

  3. 03

    Download

    Save one file, or the whole batch as a zip. Your JPG files stay as they are.

Expect a bigger file

Know this before you start. A JPG got small by throwing detail away, and a PNG throws nothing away. So the PNG stores exactly what the JPG kept, including the blocky marks its compression left behind. Photos often come out three to five times bigger.

That is not a fault in either format. They are built for different jobs. JPG is for photographs you want small. PNG is for pictures that must stay exact: screenshots, line art, anything with text, and anything with a see-through part. Converting a photo to PNG gives you a bigger file with the same picture in it. Nothing can put back what the JPG already dropped.

So convert when you need the format. Something you use may only read PNG. You may be about to edit and want no more loss on each save. You may need to cut a see-through area, which a JPG cannot hold. Those are good reasons. Converting will not make the photo look better, and no tool can.

Size
Usually larger. PNG keeps every pixel, so nothing is cut.
Quality
No setting. PNG has no lossy mode, so there is no dial.
Batch
No limit on files. One at a time, so memory stays flat.
Originals
Never touched. Converting always writes a new file.

Frequently asked questions

Why is my PNG bigger than the JPG?
Because PNG keeps every pixel and JPG does not. A JPG has already thrown detail away to get small. PNG stores exactly what is left, including the blocky marks JPG compression left behind. Photos often grow three to five times.
Does this make my photo better?
No. Nothing can put back detail the JPG already dropped. You get a bigger file with the same picture in it. Convert when you need the PNG format, not to improve the image.
So when should I convert JPG to PNG?
When something you use only reads PNG. When you are about to edit and want no more loss with each save. Or when you need to add a see-through area, which a JPG cannot hold.
Will my photo get a transparent background?
No. A JPG has no see-through parts, so there are none to carry over. The PNG can hold transparency, but you have to cut it yourself. Try Remove Background for that.
Is there a quality setting?
No, and there is nothing missing. PNG has no lossy mode, so a quality dial would do nothing at all. To make a file smaller, set the size to 75% or 50%, or use the image compressor.
How many files can I convert at once?
As many as you like. Files run one at a time, so a long queue never holds a stack of decoded images in memory. Your free memory is the only real ceiling.
Do my images get uploaded?
No. Every decode and re-encode happens in this tab. The image data never leaves your device, so there is no copy to delete.
Are my JPG files changed?
No. Your browser reads each one and writes a separate new PNG for you to download. The file on your disk is untouched.
What happens to EXIF data?
The tool drops it, including the camera and location data. Your browser redraws the pixels on a canvas, and nothing else comes along.
Does this work offline?
Yes. Once the page has loaded, converting carries on with no network connection.
