About Image Format Converter

Image Format Converter turns images into PNG, JPEG, or WebP — the three formats nearly every browser, app, and operating system understands. It reads the common web formats (PNG, JPG, WebP, GIF, BMP) plus iPhone HEIC and AVIF, so it is the tool you reach for when an upload form rejects a format, a JPEG needs transparency, an iPhone HEIC won't open on Windows, or a photo needs to be a smaller WebP for a website.

Worked example: drop in a PNG screenshot and pick JPEG to get a much smaller version at typical quality settings — at the cost of transparency, which JPEG cannot represent and which is flattened onto a white background. Pick WebP instead and you get a similarly small file with transparency preserved. Going PNG → WebP at quality 92 typically yields a file half the size or smaller with no visible difference from the original.

A few practical notes. PNG is lossless and supports transparency — ideal for logos, icons, screenshots, and anything with sharp edges or flat color. JPEG is lossy and has no transparency, but produces compact files for photographs. WebP combines both worlds (transparency support plus smaller files at the same visual quality) and is now supported by every major modern browser; the canvas WebP encoder this tool uses produces lossy WebP at a high default quality. HEIC files are decoded in your browser with the libheif library before re-encoding, so iPhone photos convert even on Windows and other browsers that cannot open HEIC natively; AVIF, GIF, and BMP are read through the browser's own decoders.

All conversion runs locally in your browser via canvas. The source image is never uploaded, which matters for personal photos and unreleased design assets.

Frequently asked questions

Each format has different strengths. JPEG is small for photos; PNG is lossless and supports transparency; WebP usually wins on size at the same quality. Conversion is for matching the format to the use case.
