Convert JPG to PNG Online – Free

Save JPG and JPEG images as PNG files, one at a time or in bulk. PNG is lossless, so the picture won't lose any more detail when you edit and save it again.

Add your JPG images. Other image formats work too.

How to convert JPG to PNG

  1. Add your JPG images. Drop them onto the box above or tap to choose them. PNG is already selected as the output format.
  2. Press Convert. There's no quality to set, because PNG saves every pixel exactly.
  3. Watch the progress. With several images, a progress bar shows how far through the batch you are.
  4. Download each PNG from the list, or choose Download all for a ZIP. The list shows the file size before and after for each one.

Features

  • Lossless PNG output at full quality, with no settings to get wrong.
  • Bulk conversion of as many JPG or JPEG files as you need.
  • ZIP download for batches.
  • Same width and height as your original photo.
  • File sizes shown before and after, so you know what to expect before sending the PNG anywhere.
  • Works with other formats too, such as WebP, BMP and AVIF, if you add them to the same batch.

Why convert JPG to PNG?

To stop quality loss while editing. Each time a JPG is opened, changed and saved, it is compressed again and a little more detail is lost. Blocky patches and halos around edges build up over several rounds. Converting to PNG before you start editing means later saves don't add any new damage.

Because a site or app asks for PNG. Some design tools, printing services, game mods and developer platforms only accept PNG uploads.

For graphics saved in the wrong format. Logos, charts and screenshots that were saved as JPG by mistake are best kept as PNG from now on, so they don't get any worse each time they're re-shared.

What converting can't do

It's worth being clear about the limits, because many people expect more from a format change than it can deliver.

  • It won't sharpen a blurry photo or remove existing JPG artefacts. The PNG looks the same as the JPG you added.
  • It won't make the background transparent. That requires cutting the subject out, which this tool doesn't do.
  • It won't make the image smaller. For photos, PNG files are larger. If size matters more than lossless editing, keep the JPG or compress it instead.

A simple editing workflow

If you regularly work on photos, a lossless middle step keeps the final result as clean as possible:

  1. Start from the best JPG you have, ideally the one straight from the camera rather than a copy downloaded from a chat app, which is usually already recompressed.
  2. Convert it to PNG here.
  3. Do all your editing on the PNG: cropping, adding text, adjusting colours. Save as often as you like.
  4. When you've finished, export one final JPG for sharing, or keep the PNG if the image contains text or sharp graphics.

This way the image is compressed only twice in its life, once by the camera and once at the end, however many rounds of changes happen in between.

Why use Fileora's JPG to PNG converter

The conversion happens in your browser using its built-in image engine. Your photos aren't uploaded to a server, so they stay private and there's no transfer time, even for a large batch.

It's free, needs no account and adds no watermark. It works on phones, tablets and computers alike.

If you're preparing images for a project, you might also want to crop an image to the right shape or convert PNG back to JPG once your editing is finished and you need a smaller file to share.

Frequently asked questions

Does converting JPG to PNG improve the quality?

No. Detail that JPG compression removed when the photo was first saved can't be brought back. The PNG is an exact copy of the JPG as it looks now. What PNG does is stop any further loss: you can edit and re-save it as often as you like without the picture getting worse.

Why is the PNG file bigger than my JPG?

PNG stores every pixel without lossy compression, while JPG throws away fine detail to save space. For photographs, a PNG is typically several times larger than the JPG it came from. That is normal and doesn't mean anything went wrong.

Will converting to PNG make my background transparent?

No. A JPG has no transparency, so the PNG has the same solid background as the original. Converting only changes the file format; it doesn't remove or cut out the background.

Is there a quality setting for PNG?

No. PNG is lossless, so there's nothing to set, and the quality slider is hidden when PNG is selected. Every PNG is saved at full quality.

Can I convert several JPG files to PNG at once?

Yes. Add all the JPG files together and press Convert. You can download each PNG separately or save them all in a single ZIP file.

Is JPEG the same as JPG?

Yes. JPG and JPEG are two spellings of the same format. Files ending in .jpg, .jpeg and .JPG are all accepted and converted the same way.
