Convert any JPG or JPEG file to PNG online for free. Upload your image and download a lossless PNG in seconds. No signup, no software, no watermarks. Works in any browser on Mac, Windows, iPhone and Android.
PNG is a lossless format that preserves every pixel of the original without any quality loss. Converting a JPG to PNG is useful when you need to edit the image further without introducing compression artefacts, use it as a source for further conversion, or place it on a platform that requires PNG format.
Note that converting a JPG to PNG does not recover detail that was already discarded when the JPG was originally saved. The resulting PNG will be lossless from this point forward but will not be sharper than the input JPG.
There are specific workflows and platforms where PNG is the only acceptable format — and JPG to PNG conversion is the fastest way to meet those requirements.
When a JPG image needs to be edited in Photoshop, Figma or Illustrator and then composited onto other layers, saving it as PNG first prevents additional compression artefacts accumulating with each save. PNG is lossless, so no quality is lost during multiple edit cycles. It also supports transparency, making it compatible with design workflows that require cutouts or layered compositions.
Many mobile apps, UI frameworks and operating systems require PNG for icons, splash screens and interface assets. A logo or icon delivered as a JPG may have visible compression halos around edges that become obvious on high-DPI screens. Converting to PNG removes those artefacts and delivers a clean, crisp asset for any display density.
Some platforms — print-on-demand services, government document portals, academic submission systems — explicitly require PNG files and reject JPGs. Converting is faster than re-exporting from the original source file when the source is no longer available or was created by someone else.
Quick answers about how this tool works and how to get the best results.
No. Converting a JPG to PNG makes the file lossless from that point forward, but it cannot recover detail that was discarded when the JPG was originally compressed. The PNG will look identical to the JPG you uploaded — it will simply not lose any more quality in future edits or conversions.
PNG stores every pixel without compression artefacts, while JPG discards some data to achieve smaller files. A PNG made from a JPG inherits the full pixel dimensions and stores them losslessly, which is why it is typically two to four times larger than the source JPG. This is expected and correct behaviour.
The PNG format itself supports full transparency, but a JPG source file has no transparency information — JPG cannot store it. The resulting PNG will have a solid background matching whatever was in the original JPG. To get a transparent background you would need to use the Remove Background tool separately after the conversion.
Yes. Everything runs in your browser. Your JPG is never sent to a server, stored, or transmitted. Close or reload the tab and the image data is cleared from memory immediately.
