Convert PNG to JPG in your browser
PNG is a great format for graphics, but a poor choice for photos: a single smartphone photo saved as PNG can easily reach 10–20 MB. Converting it to JPG typically shrinks it to 1–3 MB with no visible difference. This PNG to JPG converter handles one image or a whole folder at once, lets you set the JPG quality and choose what colour should replace transparent areas. Everything happens locally on your device.
How it works
Your browser decodes each PNG, draws it onto a canvas over the background colour you choose, and encodes the result as a JPG at the selected quality. Because no upload is needed, conversion starts immediately and your files stay private.
When to convert PNG to JPG
- Photos exported as PNG by screenshot tools, phones or editing apps.
- Upload limits on websites, job portals or government forms that only accept JPG or have a small maximum size.
- Email attachments that are too large to send.
- Printing services and older software that expect JPG.
When to keep PNG
Keep PNG — or choose WebP — for images that need transparency (logos, icons, stickers), and for screenshots with small text or user interfaces, where JPG compression can create faint halos around sharp edges.
Choosing the JPG quality
| Quality | Typical use |
|---|---|
| 90–95 | High-quality photos, printing |
| 80–89 | Websites, social media, email |
| 60–79 | Thumbnails and previews where size matters most |
