How do I convert a PNG file to JPG?

Drop the file onto the converter at the top of this page. The JPG appears within a second, ready for the Download button. You can also click Choose files or press ⌘V / Ctrl+V to paste from the clipboard. No software to install, no account to create.

Can I convert multiple PNG files to JPG at once?

Yes — select up to 50 files at a time. Each one converts the moment it enters the list, and Download all saves every result one after another. Changing the quality slider re-converts every file in the batch at the new setting.

Does converting PNG to JPG reduce quality?

JPG uses lossy compression, so there is technically some data loss, but at the default quality of 90 the difference is invisible on photos and screenshots. Push the slider to 100 for the closest match, or lower it when file size matters more than fine detail.

Why does my PNG look different after converting to JPG?

Two things change. First, transparent areas get a solid background colour — most converters pick black, but here you choose white, black, grey or any custom colour. Second, JPG compression can soften hard edges at low quality settings; raising the slider minimises this.

Is it safe to convert PNG to JPG online?

With this tool, yes — nothing is uploaded. Your browser decodes the PNG, re-encodes it as JPG on your own device, and the result stays in your browser until you download it. No server ever sees your files.

What is the file size limit for converting?

There is no fixed cap. Because everything happens locally, the only limit is what your browser can hold in memory. If a file is too large for full-size encoding, the converter steps down to 32, 16.7, 8 or 4 megapixels and shows the size it used.

Can I convert PNG to JPG on my phone?

Yes. The converter runs in any modern browser — Safari on iPhone, Chrome on Android, and every major desktop browser. No app needed, same 50-file batch limit everywhere.

Does converting strip metadata from the file?

Yes. A canvas re-encode carries only pixels, so EXIF data like camera model, timestamp and GPS coordinates do not survive. That is usually a plus before sharing or publishing, but worth knowing if you need that metadata preserved.

JPG has no transparency, so see-through pixels get this colour.

How to convert PNG to JPG

Three steps, a few seconds per file — no software, no account.

Drop or pick your PNG files
Drag one or more PNGs onto the drop zone, click Choose files, or paste a screenshot with ⌘V / Ctrl+V. You can add up to 50 files in a single batch.
Adjust quality and background colour
Slide the quality between 50 and 100 (default 90). Choose white, black, grey or a custom colour for areas that were transparent in the PNG — every file re-converts instantly when you change a setting.
Save the JPG files
Hit Download for a single file, Download all for the entire batch, or Copy to put the image on your clipboard. Each file keeps its original name with a .jpg extension.

What happens when you convert a PNG to JPG

PNG stores every pixel losslessly with full transparency support, which is why screenshots and graphics with sharp edges look crisp but produce large files. JPG applies lossy compression tuned for photographs: it discards detail the eye barely notices and produces files that are a fraction of the size.

The conversion here is a re-encode, not a rename. Your browser decodes the PNG into raw pixels, paints the background colour you chose behind any transparent areas (JPG has no alpha channel), and hands the pixel data to its built-in JPEG encoder at the quality level you set. The result is a new file — the original PNG is not modified.

Because the re-encode uses a canvas, metadata from the source file (EXIF, ICC profiles, text chunks) does not carry over. The JPG contains only pixel data, which is usually what you want before sharing or uploading.

Your files stay on your device

The entire conversion runs inside your browser tab. No file, filename or pixel is sent to any server — which is why the first result appears instantly instead of after an upload. Once the page has loaded you can disconnect from the internet and keep converting.

Closing the tab releases every copy held in memory. There is nothing to delete and no account to deactivate.

Need the reverse conversion?

Convert JPG to PNG when you need a lossless copy to edit and re-save — same batch of 50, same browser-only conversion, nothing to configure.
