Why convert to JPG?
JPG (also called JPEG) is the universal language of online photographs. Every browser, every email client, every CMS and every social network accepts it — making it the safest target format when you need a file that just works. JPGs are also smaller than PNGs for photographic content thanks to the format's efficient lossy compression, which lets you trade a tiny amount of perceptual quality for a big drop in file size.
What this tool handles
- PNG → JPG: dramatic size savings on screenshots and photos that don't need transparency.
- WEBP → JPG: useful when an older system or app doesn't recognise WEBP.
- HEIC → JPG: the format iPhones save in by default — many tools still can't open it.
- GIF → JPG: grabs the first frame as a static photo.
- SVG → JPG: rasterises a vector at its current size.
- BMP, TIFF → JPG: handy for legacy scanner output and Windows clipboard images.
Background colour for transparent images
JPG can't store an alpha channel — every pixel is fully opaque. When a PNG, WEBP or SVG with transparency is converted, the transparent pixels are filled with whatever background colour you pick. The default is white, which works for most documents and bright websites, but black, light gray and any custom hex are one click away. Pick the colour that matches the surface where the JPG will eventually be displayed and the result will look seamless.
Picking a quality setting
The quality slider runs from 1 to 100. As a quick guide:
- 95–100: archival or master copies — virtually identical to source.
- 85–94: the standard "looks great everywhere" range. Default is 92.
- 70–84: noticeable savings; visible artefacts only on flat colour areas.
- 40–69: aggressive — smudgy edges and blocking become visible.
- 1–39: for thumbnails or extreme bandwidth-constrained use cases only.
Privacy
Every step — including HEIC and TIFF decoding — happens in your browser. Files never touch our servers, and the tool keeps working if you go offline mid-session. That makes it safe to convert passport photos, screenshots of internal dashboards, scanned documents, and anything else you wouldn't want sitting on a third-party host.
