JPG to PNG Converter

Convert JPG to PNG

Converting JPG to PNG gives you a file that can be edited and re-saved without further compression loss. It is also what some design tools, templates and upload forms ask for. Drop in your JPG files and download PNG versions in seconds.

What the conversion can and cannot do

A JPG has already lost some detail when it was saved. Converting it to PNG stops any further loss but cannot restore what is gone, so the picture will look the same, only stored differently. The PNG will be several times larger than the JPG.

Good reasons to use PNG

PNG is useful as a working format if you plan to edit the picture several times, add text or shapes, or remove the background. Each re-save of a JPG degrades it a little, while PNG does not. PNG is also required by some platforms for logos and app assets.

Making a clean working copy

If you intend to crop, annotate or paste the picture into other documents several times, convert it to PNG once and work from that copy. Each pass stays free of extra compression, and you can still export a final JPG or WebP at the end for sharing or publishing.

Good to know about JPG to PNG

• If you need a transparent background, remove it in an editor after converting; the conversion itself does not add transparency.
• Do not convert JPG to PNG just to improve quality; it will not.
• For sharing and uploading, keep the JPG: it is much smaller.

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert JPG to PNG?

Drop your JPG files onto the converter above (or click to choose them), press Convert and download the PNG files. It works in your browser and needs no software.

Will my image look better as a PNG?

No. PNG stores the existing picture without further loss but cannot add detail.

Why did the file size increase?

JPG uses lossy compression to be small. PNG stores the pixels losslessly, which takes more space, particularly for photographs.

Is the JPG to PNG converter free?

Yes. You can convert up to 20 files per batch, 10MB each, without creating an account. A free account raises the file limit to 25MB, and Pro or the 24-hour pass go up to 100MB per file with larger batches.

Which files can I upload?

This page is set up for JPG (JPG, JPEG), but the converter also accepts many other formats, including JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, HEIC, TIFF, BMP, PSD and camera RAW files.

What happens to my files?

Uploaded files are used only to produce your conversion and are deleted automatically. See the privacy policy for the exact retention details.
