Which format should you choose?
| Format | Best for | Transparency | Trade-off |
|---|---|---|---|
| JPG | Photos; forms, portals and older software that accept nothing else | No — transparent areas become white | Lossy: tiny quality cost, big size savings |
| PNG | Screenshots, logos, graphics with sharp edges or transparency | Yes | Lossless, but photo files are often several times larger |
| WebP | Websites and modern apps; smallest files at the same dimensions | Yes | Not accepted by some older software and a few portals |
How to convert an image
- Choose your image — drop it above or click to browse.
- Pick the target format and a quality level (for JPG and WebP; PNG ignores quality because it is lossless).
- Convert and compare — the result panel shows the original and converted sizes side by side before you download.
Honest notes
- Converting to PNG often makes the file bigger. PNG is lossless; that is the correct result, not an error, and the tool tells you when it happens.
- Converting cannot add quality. A JPG saved at low quality will not become sharper as a PNG — the information is already gone. PNG only preserves what is there.
- Animated images are converted from their first frame.
- Popular one-step conversions have their own pages: JPG to WebP, PNG to WebP and WebP to JPG.
Privacy
Conversion runs 100% locally in your browser using its built-in image technology. Your image is never uploaded to ImageConvertPro or any other server, and nothing about the file is stored. The downloaded file always has the correct extension and type for the format you chose.
Frequently asked questions
Does converting change the dimensions?
No — the pixel dimensions stay identical. To change dimensions as well, use the image resizer; to hit a file-size limit, use the KB compressor.
Why does my converted file have a different size than expected?
Formats compress differently. JPG and WebP discard some detail to shrink files; PNG keeps every pixel. The result panel always shows both real sizes so there are no surprises.
Can I convert an iPhone HEIC photo here?
Only if your browser can open HEIC (Safari can; Chrome currently cannot). If the file cannot be read, the tool says so and suggests exporting the photo as JPG from the Photos app first.
