Going from JPEG to PNG

People convert JPEG to PNG for a few specific reasons: a tool that only takes PNG, the need for a transparent background to build on, or wanting a format that won’t lose more quality each time it’s edited and saved. PNG is lossless, so once an image is a PNG you can re-save it endlessly without it degrading.

Be clear about one thing, though: converting a JPEG to PNG can’t undo the compression JPEG already applied. The PNG will be a perfect — and larger — copy of the JPEG you have. It won’t bring back detail the original threw away.

Good to know

• • Expect the PNG to be noticeably larger than the JPEG; that’s the price of lossless.
• • JPEGs have no transparency, so you’d add any transparent areas yourself afterwards.

The private way to turn JPEG into PNG

With Morphr, the whole conversion runs inside your browser tab using your browser's built-in decoder, so your file is never uploaded to a server, queued, or stored. That makes it a safe choice for personal photos, scanned documents and anything you'd rather not hand to a third party.

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert JPEG to PNG?

Drop your JPEG file onto the converter above (or click to browse), and Morphr converts it to PNG right in your browser. When it's done, click download — there's nothing to install and no account to create.

Does converting to PNG lose quality?

PNG is lossless, so no image quality is lost in the conversion.

Does converting JPEG to PNG remove EXIF and GPS data?

Yes. Re-encoding the image to PNG drops the embedded EXIF, GPS location and camera metadata, so the file you download carries none of those hidden details. If you'd rather keep a file's exact pixels but strip its metadata in place, use the Inspect tool instead.

Are my files uploaded to a server?

No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser, so your JPEG file never leaves your device.
