PNG files are pixel-perfect but often huge, and that matters when a form has an upload limit or an email needs to stay small. Drop your PNGs below and this converter re-encodes them as much smaller JPGs on your own device: nothing is uploaded.

When JPG is the better choice
For photographs and screenshots without sharp text, JPG typically cuts the file size dramatically at a quality level you cannot tell apart from the original. That is why upload forms, email attachments, and photo-sharing sites all favor it. The quality slider (default 90%) controls the trade-off.
When to keep PNG
Keep PNG when the image is a logo, a diagram, text-heavy, or needs a transparent background. PNG is lossless, so crisp edges stay crisp; JPG can smudge fine text, and it fills transparent areas with white because it cannot store transparency. The format guide covers the trade-offs in detail.
Common questions
Will converting PNG to JPG reduce quality?
JPG is lossy, so some detail is discarded, but at a high quality setting the difference is usually invisible for photos and screenshots. Fine text and sharp edges are where JPG shows its limits.
What happens to a transparent background?
A JPG has no alpha channel, so anything transparent in the PNG comes out white after conversion. Keep the image as PNG or use WebP when the background matters.
How much smaller will my file get?
It depends on the image, but photographic PNGs commonly shrink to a fraction of their size as JPG at 90% quality. Screenshots with large flat areas shrink less dramatically but still meaningfully.
