Converting JPG to PNG moves your image from a compressed, lossy format to a lossless one. JPG is built for small file sizes and is great for photos, but every time it's saved it discards a little detail, and it can't store transparency. PNG keeps every pixel exactly and supports a transparent background, which makes it the right choice for logos, screenshots, diagrams, and any graphic with sharp edges or text.

File Converts converts your JPG to PNG in the browser, so the image never leaves your device — no upload, no sign-up, no limit. The conversion is instant and works offline once the page has loaded.

It's worth knowing what conversion can and can't do: turning a JPG into a PNG stops any further quality loss from that point on, but it can't recover detail the JPG already discarded, and the PNG will usually be larger because it's lossless. Convert to PNG when you need transparency, when you'll edit and re-save the image repeatedly, or when you need crisp edges on graphics and text.

If your goal is the opposite — a smaller file for the web or email — convert PNG to JPG instead, or use WebP, a modern format that's typically 25–35% smaller than either at similar quality.

Best for

  • Getting a lossless copy you can edit and re-save without further quality loss
  • Moving an image into software or a workflow that expects PNG
  • Preparing an image you'll add transparency to (e.g. a logo or overlay)

Good to know

PNG is lossless, but converting from JPG cannot recover the detail JPG already discarded — you get a clean, non-degrading copy, not a sharper image. The PNG will usually be several times larger than the JPG. Convert to PNG for editing or transparency; keep JPG for the smallest photo files.

Frequently asked questions

No. JPG already dropped some detail when it was saved, and PNG cannot bring it back. What PNG gives you is a lossless copy that won't degrade further each time you edit and re-save it.

Usually yes — often several times larger — because PNG is lossless and JPG is compressed. That's the trade for no further quality loss and transparency support.

Converting to PNG enables transparency, but it does not automatically remove the existing background. Use the Background Remover tool for that, then the result is a transparent PNG.

No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser, so the image never leaves your device.
