This free JPG to PNG converter turns JPGs into PNGs with every pixel kept, ready to edit.

It works in your browser and uploads nothing.

Here's what a JPG to PNG converter does, when to use one, and how this one did against CloudConvert.

What is a JPG to PNG converter?

A JPG to PNG converter turns a JPG image into a PNG file: the same picture, in a format that opens somewhere else.

This one works in your browser, and gives every file a score that shows how close it looks to the original.

When to convert JPG to PNG

Convert to PNG when you'll edit an image again, add transparency to it, or need a format an app asks for. PNG keeps every pixel, so editing doesn't add new loss.

Converting can't bring back detail a JPG already lost. And a PNG of a photo is much bigger than the JPG, often 4 to 8 times.

Compared with CloudConvert

I converted the same JPG files here and with CloudConvert, at each one's default settings. Then I scored every result against its original:

Golden retriever photo, 29 megapixels
Original
7.9 MB
CloudConvert
47.2 MB, score 96.2
This converter
39.6 MB, score 100
Dark portrait, 6 megapixels
Original
248 KB
CloudConvert
2.2 MB, score 100
This converter
1.9 MB, score 100
The same photo at 6 megapixels
Original
2.4 MB
CloudConvert
10.4 MB, score 100
This converter
8.9 MB, score 100

Both converters kept the photos exactly. This converter's PNGs were 13% to 16% smaller, packed tighter by OxiPNG, and all 3 scored 100.

CloudConvert's biggest PNG scored 96.2 instead of 100: it wasn't quite the same picture.

How I tested

I tested on September 29, 2026. The JPGs were a 29-megapixel golden retriever photo, the same photo at 6 megapixels, and a dark 6-megapixel portrait.

How I scored each file0/4

The score is SSIMULACRA 2, a metric from Cloudinary that compares two pictures the way your eye does:

ScoreWhat it means
90 and upLooks identical: no difference even flicking between them at 100%
80 to 90Same side by side at 100%
70 to 80High quality: hard to notice without comparing
50 to 70Medium quality: you can see it up close
Under 50Visible loss

Who is the JPG to PNG converter for?

It's for anyone editing a photo again:

It works in your browser, and the new file leaves out hidden details like the camera and where a photo was taken.
