- 2Under “Convert to,” pick the format you want — JPG, PNG, or WebP.
- 3Set the quality with the slider (PNG is lossless, so there’s no quality control).
- 4Press Convert and the new size shows up next to the original. Hit download to save — that’s it!
Handy tips
- If you need to keep a transparent background, convert to PNG or WebP. JPG has no transparency, so it fills in with white.
- For the web, WebP is usually the lightest at the same visual quality.
- When converting photos to JPG or WebP, around 80% quality trims the size with no visible difference.
JPG, PNG, and WebP at a glance
JPG is a lossy format built for photographs. It packs smooth gradients and thousands of colors into a small file, but it can't hold a transparent background and it discards a little information every time it saves. PNG is lossless, so pixels are preserved perfectly and transparency is supported — the trade-off is that photo-like images with lots of color tend to balloon in size. It shines on logos, icons, and screenshots, where colors are simple and edges are crisp.
WebP is a newer format that blends the strengths of both. It supports lossy and lossless modes, handles transparency, and is often smaller than JPG or PNG at the same visual quality. Most current browsers open WebP fine, but some older programs and a few messaging apps still can't. So WebP is great for the web, while JPG is the safe pick when you need something that opens everywhere.
Which format should you pick — a situational guide
For attachments, printing, or photo prints that simply must open for anyone, JPG is the most reliable choice. When you're putting images on a homepage, blog, or store and fast loading matters, converting to WebP to shrink the size is the way to go. If you need a logo to sit over a background or any part of the image to stay see-through, pick PNG or WebP — converting to JPG fills transparent areas with white.
Screenshots full of text or shapes with hard lines can look smeared around the letters when saved as JPG. Those images stay far cleaner as PNG or WebP. Conversely, saving a color-rich real-world photo as PNG only inflates the size with almost no quality gain, so for photos, JPG or WebP is the practical call. When you're not sure where a file will end up, start with WebP, and if something refuses to open it, convert that copy to JPG as a fallback.
It also accepts phone photos like iPhone HEIC
Recent iPhones save photos in a format called HEIC. It keeps the file small, but browsers other than Safari and many older programs often can't open it, so it's an easy format to get stuck on when sharing. This tool recognizes a HEIC file the moment you drop it in and handles it automatically, so you can turn it straight into JPG, PNG, or WebP with no extra app.
All the conversion happens inside your browser, and the photo is never uploaded to a server. That means files you'd rather not show anyone — family photos, a snapshot of a contract — are safe to convert. Turning HEIC into JPG also means it will open without trouble on a Windows PC or an older Android phone.
Frequently asked questions
You can switch between JPG, PNG, and WebP. On the way in, it also accepts formats like HEIC.
No, your original stays as is. You just download a new converted copy, so there’s nothing to worry about. And since everything runs on your device, the original never leaves it.
PNG is a lossless format, so compressing it doesn’t reduce quality. That’s why it saves as-is without a quality slider. If you want a smaller file, try converting to WebP instead.
For now it handles one at a time. For multiple images, save one and then upload the next, repeating the same steps.
Converting to PNG is lossless, so the quality stays intact. Converting to JPG or WebP uses lossy compression, so quality can dip slightly — but at around 80% quality the difference is hard to see. Turning an already-lossy photo into another lossy format stacks up a bit of degradation, so start from the original whenever you can.
This tool converts single still images. If you drop in an animated GIF, only the first frame is converted and the motion is dropped. WebP can technically hold animation, but here it works as a still-image converter.
