How image conversion works
Choose an image, pick the output format, press “Convert” and download. This image converter reads the real file type from its content, not its extension, decodes it to pixels and saves it as JPEG, PNG or WebP at the same size. The original name is kept, so photo.png becomes photo.jpg. Use it to convert images online: PNG to JPG, JPG to WebP, JPG to PNG and WebP to JPG. Portrait camera photos keep the right orientation.
iPhone HEIC photos
HEIC/HEIF files are not supported in this version. If you choose one, you'll see a message and nothing is converted. To have your iPhone save JPEG photos, go to Settings › Camera › Formats › “Most Compatible”. When you transfer photos to a computer, the Photos setting “Transfer to Mac or PC: Automatic” also sends them as JPEG. You can then convert those JPEGs to PNG or WebP here.
Which output format to choose
JPEG suits photos and works almost everywhere. PNG suits screenshots, logos and anything that needs transparency, with no quality loss. WebP makes smaller files and keeps transparency, but some older apps can't open it yet.
Transparency and JPEG limitations
JPEG has no transparency. When an image with a transparent background is converted to JPEG, the transparent areas become white, and you're warned before converting. To keep transparency, choose PNG or WebP.
Image quality and file size
The quality setting applies to JPEG and WebP; the default of 90 keeps detail well. A photo saved as PNG is usually several times larger than JPEG. The size shown is the real size of the file created. For a smaller file, use the Image Compressor, or reduce the dimensions with the Image Resizer.
Privacy and local processing
Images are converted in your browser. They are not uploaded or saved on the device, and file names aren't sent anywhere. The new file is created from pixels only, so the original's camera details and GPS location are not copied. Leaving the page clears the image from memory.
Browser support and common problems
It works in current Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari. Some browsers, such as older Safari, can't create WebP files; that option is then disabled. Images over 40 megapixels are not supported, to avoid running out of memory. If your browser can't open an image, the file may be damaged or incomplete; try saving or exporting it again.
Frequently asked questions
Are my images uploaded anywhere?
No. All conversion happens in your browser.
Can I convert several files at once?
Not yet. One image is converted at a time.
Can I convert HEIC files?
Not in this version. Set your iPhone to save or transfer photos as JPEG first.
