About this tool
Convert JPG images to PNG in seconds. JPG is the most widely supported photo format and keeps file sizes small. PNG gives you a lossless copy for editing. It cannot restore quality already lost in the JPG, and files will be larger. Your files are processed on your device and never uploaded.
Why convert JPG to PNG?
PNG is lossless, so once a picture is in PNG it does not lose more quality each time you edit and save it. It is also the format to choose if you want to add transparency later in an image editor, or if a program only accepts PNG files.
What to expect
- The picture will not look better. The JPG has already lost some detail, and converting to PNG cannot bring it back.
- The file gets larger. A photo saved as PNG is often several times bigger than the JPG.
- No transparency is added. The PNG will have the same background as the JPG, but you can now remove it in an editor.
If your goal is a smaller file
Going from JPG to PNG makes files bigger. To reduce size, use the Image Compressor instead.
Privacy and limits
Files are processed inside your browser and are not uploaded to FormatVolt. Each file can be up to 50 MB. Very large images or PDFs can fail on devices with little memory, so try a smaller file or a desktop browser if that happens.
Frequently asked questions
Is it really free?
Yes. There are no limits, watermarks or sign-ups.
Are my files uploaded anywhere?
No. The conversion runs inside your browser, so your files never leave your device.
Will converting JPG to PNG reduce quality?
No further loss happens – PNG is lossless – but it cannot bring back detail that was already lost in the original.
Can I convert several files at once?
Yes. Add multiple files and download each result.
Does converting JPG to PNG improve quality?
No. It only stores the current picture without further loss. Detail that was lost when the JPG was created cannot be restored.
Why is my PNG so much bigger than the JPG?
PNG stores every pixel without lossy compression, which makes photos much larger than JPG files.
