To convert PNG to JPG, drop the PNG in, click Convert to JPG, and download the file. It's usually much smaller, which makes it easier to email or upload. Transparent areas turn white. Everything runs in your browser.
Why convert PNG to JPG?
PNG keeps every pixel, so photos and screenshots saved as PNG can get very big. JPG uses smart compression that shrinks them a lot with little visible change.
- Email attachments and upload forms with a size limit.
- Photos that only need to look good on a screen.
- Websites and apps that only accept JPG.
- Freeing up space on your phone or drive.
How to convert PNG to JPG

- Click Convert to JPG.
- Check the preview, then click Download.
What happens to transparency and quality
JPG can't store transparency. Any see-through area is filled with white, so a logo with a transparent background will end up on white. If you need to keep transparency, stay with PNG, or use PNG to WebP.
The JPG is saved at 92 percent quality, which most people can't tell from the original. Screenshots with sharp text and flat colors don't always shrink much, and can even grow, since PNG is already good at those. Before you upload a screenshot that has text, zoom in on the JPG and check the letters still look clean. If the edges look fuzzy, keep the PNG. Our article on why a converted JPG can be bigger than the PNG explains why.
Getting the file even smaller
- Run the JPG through Image Compressor for extra savings.
- Resize a huge image with Image Resizer before you convert.
- Need to go back to lossless? JPG to PNG converts the other way, though it can't restore detail lost to compression.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert a PNG to a JPG without losing quality?
JPG is always a little lossy, but at 92 percent quality the difference is hard to see. For a visibly identical result on photos, this setting is a good balance of size and quality.
What happens to a transparent PNG background?
JPG doesn't support transparency, so those areas become white. Use PNG or WebP if you need to keep them transparent.
Why is my JPG bigger than the PNG?
It happens with screenshots and flat-color graphics, where PNG compresses very well. Photos usually shrink.
Is there a file size limit?
Not on our side. The practical limit is your device's memory, so very large images may be slow on older phones.
Can I convert several PNG files at once?
One at a time for now. Convert a file, download it, and drop in the next.
Is my image uploaded to a server?
No. The conversion happens in your browser, and we never see your image.
