Transparent areas become white in JPG.

Files never leave your device. Everything runs in your browser.

How to use it

  1. Choose your PNG files with "Choose files", or drop them onto the converter.
  2. With JPG set under "Convert to", pick a "Quality" and click "Convert".
  3. Download each JPG, or click "Download all (ZIP)" to get them in one file.

Good to know

PNG is lossless, which is great for crisp graphics but wasteful for photos: a photo, or a screenshot of a photo-heavy page, saved as PNG can be far bigger than it needs to be. JPG is lossy and designed for photographic images, so converting usually brings the size down a lot, which helps with email attachments, upload limits and storage on your phone.

Expect two changes. JPG has no transparency, so transparent areas become white; check logos or icons with see-through backgrounds first, or convert them to WebP, which keeps transparency and still gives small files. And because JPG is lossy, fine detail such as small text in screenshots can soften at low quality settings, so keep the slider near its default of 90 for text-heavy images.

Questions and answers

Why convert PNG to JPG?

To get smaller files. For photos and photo-heavy screenshots, a JPG takes far less space than the same image as PNG, and JPG opens almost everywhere.

What happens to a transparent background?

It's filled with white, since JPG has no way to store transparency. To keep it, convert to WebP or keep the PNG.

Which quality setting is best for screenshots?

Stay close to the default of 90 so text and sharp edges stay clean. Lower settings make smaller files but can blur fine lines.

Is there a limit on how many PNGs I can convert?

There's no daily or file-count limit. Big batches depend on your device's memory, so a computer handles more at once than a phone.
