Drop JPG files here — or any picture

One file or a whole folder. Each one is converted on its own terms.

Paste works too, or drop a whole folder.

Drop JPGs. Each is written as PNG, which keeps every decoded pixel exactly. The byte count of the PNG is shown next to the JPG's, so the size cost is never a surprise.

What PNG does and does not do

PNG keeps every pixel exactly. It cannot bring back detail the JPEG already discarded, and it will usually be larger — often three to ten times larger for a photograph — because it stores the JPEG's own artefacts faithfully as well.

That is still the right choice when the picture will be edited and saved again, since every further JPEG save loses a little more and a PNG loses nothing. For a photo that is only being sent or posted, the original JPG is usually the better file.

Transparency

A JPG has no transparency, so the PNG has none either. Turning a background transparent is editing rather than conversion, and this site does not do it.

Questions about JPG to PNG

Does converting JPG to PNG improve quality?
No. PNG keeps the decoded pixels exactly, including the JPEG's compression artefacts. It stops further loss; it does not undo the loss that already happened.
Why is my PNG so much larger than the JPG?
JPEG discards detail to save space; PNG keeps every pixel losslessly. For photographs that difference is usually several times the size. The page shows both byte counts.
Will the PNG have a transparent background?
No. The JPG had no transparency to carry over. Removing a background is editing, which this converter does not do.
Can I convert several JPGs to PNG at once?
Yes. Drop them together; the ZIP carries every PNG and a manifest.
Are my files uploaded?
Nothing is uploaded: the picture is read, converted and checked in this browser tab.
