- What is the difference between JPG and PNG?
- JPG is lossy and compressed with no transparency, which keeps files small. PNG is lossless and supports transparency, which is better for editing and for workflows that require PNG.
- Why convert JPG to PNG?
- Usually because an app, template, or platform specifically needs a PNG, or because you want a lossless copy to edit further without adding more compression.
- Does converting to PNG improve image quality?
- No. Detail lost to JPG compression can't be recovered. Converting re-saves the existing pixels losslessly but does not add quality.
- Will the PNG file be bigger than the JPG?
- Usually yes. PNG is lossless, so the converted file is often several times larger than the original JPG, especially for photos.
- Does converting add a transparent background?
- No. The PNG keeps whatever background the JPG had. To make a background transparent, use a background remover first, then keep the result as PNG.
- Are my files uploaded anywhere?
- No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser, so your images stay on your device and are never uploaded.
- Can I convert several JPGs at once?
- Yes. Add up to 100 images and convert them in one batch, then download them all together as a ZIP.
- Is it free and watermark-free?
- Yes. The converter is completely free with no signup, no watermark, and no usage limits.
- Can I convert JPG to PNG on Mac, Windows, or iPhone?
- Yes. It runs in any modern browser, so you can convert JPG to PNG on Windows, Mac, iPhone, Android, or a Chromebook with nothing to install.
