Every format is good at something. JPG opens everywhere, PNG keeps transparency and never loses detail, WebP makes small files for websites, and HEIC saves space on an iPhone. The trouble starts when the file you have isn't the one a website, app or printer will take.

This converter changes the format without changing the picture. It opens your image in the browser, keeps the same width and height, and saves it in the format you pick, at the quality you choose. It takes a few seconds, and the file never leaves your device.

How it works

How to Convert an Image

  1. 1. Add your image

    Drop a JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, HEIC or JFIF onto the converter, choose it from your device, or paste it with Ctrl+V or Cmd+V.

  2. 2. Choose the new format

    Pick the conversion you want from the dropdown, such as PNG to JPG. For JPG and WebP, set the quality. If the image has transparent areas and you chose JPG, pick the color that fills them.

  3. 3. Check and download

    The converter shows the new file size next to the original. Compare the two previews, then download.

Next steps

Do More With Your Converted Image

Converting is often only the first step. These tools work the same way, in your browser, and accept the file you just made.

Pick a format

Which Format Should You Convert To?

Start with where the image is going. Something you'll email, print or upload to a form is safest as a JPG, since nearly every program and website accepts it. For an image on your own website, WebP is usually the smaller file.

Then check for transparency. A logo or a product cut out onto a see-through background needs PNG or WebP. JPG fills those areas with a solid color. The converter lets you choose that color, so a flattened logo can still match the page it goes on.

Choose PNG when the image will be edited again, or when it's a screenshot full of small text. PNG doesn't lose anything when it saves, so repeated edits don't wear it down.

Why Convert an Image?

An upload form rejects your file

Job sites, government portals and many older systems accept only JPG or PNG. Converting a HEIC, WebP or AVIF gets the same photo through.

Your website loads slowly

Large PNGs and JPGs are often the heaviest thing on a page. The same images as WebP are usually much smaller, so pages open sooner.

A logo needs to stay see-through

JPG can't store transparency. Save a logo or cut-out as PNG or WebP and it sits cleanly on any background color.

You need an icon or a PDF

Turn an image into an ICO for a website favicon, or into a one-page PDF you can attach to an email or a form.

What Converting Changes, and What It Doesn't

It changes how the image is stored

A new format means a new way of packing the same pixels. It can't add detail. Converting a blurry, heavily compressed JPG to PNG gives you a larger file of the same blurry picture.

It keeps the width and height

The output has the same pixel dimensions as the original. For a set size, use the Image Stretcher. For a file-size limit, use Resize Image to KB.

Transparency needs PNG or WebP

Converting to JPG fills see-through areas with a solid color, white unless you pick another. Converting between PNG and WebP keeps transparency, including soft, partly transparent edges.

Metadata stays behind

The new file is written from the pixels alone, so camera settings and GPS location don't come with it. Keep your original if you need that information.

Tips for Better Conversions

Frequently asked questions

Which image formats can I convert?

You can upload a JPG (also written JPEG), PNG, WebP, AVIF, HEIC or JFIF. It can be saved as BMP, GIF, ICO, JPG, PDF, PNG, SVG, TGA, TIFF or WebP. The format your image already is can't be picked, except that a JFIF can be saved as JPG: it is renamed, not re-encoded.

Does converting change the image dimensions?

No, with one exception. ICO files can hold at most 256 × 256 pixels, so an icon is scaled down to fit. Every other format keeps the original width and height. To change the size yourself, use the Image Stretcher, or Resize Image to KB for a file-size limit.

What happens to transparent backgrounds?

PNG, WebP, TIFF, TGA, ICO and SVG keep them, and GIF keeps them as on-or-off transparency. JPG, BMP and PDF can't, so transparent areas are filled with a color you choose. White is the default.

Why is my converted file bigger than the original?

PNG stores every pixel without loss, so a photo gets bigger as a PNG. A JPG or WebP can also grow if you pick a higher quality than the original was saved at. Lower the quality slider to bring the size down.

Is photo location data kept in the new file?

No. The converter writes a new file from the image's pixels, so camera details and GPS location stored in the original are not copied over.

Can I convert HEIC photos from my iPhone?

Yes. Upload the .heic file and save it as JPG, PNG or WebP. The photo keeps its full size, and a JPG opens on Windows, Android and any website.

Is there a limit on how many images I can convert?

No. There is no daily limit and no account. Because the work happens in your browser, very large images depend on your device's memory, but a current phone or computer handles ordinary photos easily.

Are my images uploaded?

No. Your browser opens, converts and saves the image on your device. Nothing is sent to a server, and nothing is kept after you close the tab.

Each page opens this converter with the format already chosen, and explains both formats.
