PNG is a lossless format that keeps images pixel-perfect, but that also makes photos and screenshots several times larger than they need to be. Converting to JPG re-encodes the image with efficient compression, often cutting the file size by 50–80% with no difference you can see at normal viewing size.
JPG (also called JPEG) is the format email clients, web forms and older devices expect, so switching from PNG clears up “file too large” and “unsupported format” problems in one step. One thing to know: JPG has no transparency, so any see-through areas in your PNG are placed on a white background.
Everything runs on your device — the PNG is drawn to a canvas and re-encoded as a JPG right in your browser, so nothing is uploaded and there's no watermark or quality cap.

Why a PNG is so much bigger
PNG compresses losslessly: every pixel is stored exactly. That is ideal for screenshots, logos and diagrams, where flat colour and sharp edges compress well and any softening would be visible. Photographs are the opposite — millions of subtly different pixels that lossless compression can barely reduce, which is how a single photo saved as PNG reaches 15 MB.
JPG was designed for photographs. It discards detail the eye is poor at noticing and routinely produces files a tenth the size with no visible difference at normal viewing sizes.
When converting is the right call
- Photographs saved as PNG
- The clearest win — a large drop in size for no perceptible change.
- Upload limits
- Forms, marketplaces and job portals that reject anything over a few megabytes.
- Web pages
- Smaller images load faster, which affects both visitors and search ranking.
- Email attachments
- A folder of PNG photos hits attachment limits far sooner than the same shots as JPG.
What you give up
JPG has no transparency. Transparent areas are filled with white during conversion, so a logo meant to sit over a coloured background will arrive in a white box. Keep those as PNG.
JPG is also lossy and each save loses a little more, so it is a poor working format. Edit in PNG and export to JPG at the end rather than re-saving a JPG repeatedly. And for screenshots of text, JPG produces visible fringing around letters — PNG stays crisp.

Frequently asked questions
Will the JPG be smaller than my PNG?
Almost always — JPG's compression typically shrinks photos and screenshots by 50–80% compared with the same image saved as a PNG.
What happens to transparent areas?
JPG doesn't support transparency, so any transparent pixels are flattened onto a solid white background during conversion.
Will I lose image quality?
JPG is lossy, but at normal quality the change is invisible for photos. For logos, line art or text, PNG usually looks crisper — keep those as PNG.
Can I convert several PNGs at once?
Yes. Add multiple PNGs and each converts to JPG in the same batch; download them individually or as a single ZIP.
Does it work on iPhone and Android?
Yes. The converter runs in any modern mobile or desktop browser, with nothing to install.
Are my images uploaded?
No. The conversion happens entirely in your browser, so your images never leave your device.
