When to convert JPG to PNG
Choose PNG when you'll edit and re-save the image repeatedly, or when you need crisp text, sharp edges, or transparency — think logos, icons, diagrams, and screenshots. JPG's lossy compression adds faint artifacts around hard edges and re-compresses every time you save; PNG stores each pixel exactly, so those details stay clean.
One caveat: converting a photograph from JPG to PNG usually makes the file larger, because PNG doesn't discard data the way JPG does. Conversion also can't restore detail JPG already removed — it simply prevents further loss. For photos where file size matters, convert to WebP instead.

Frequently asked questions
Will converting JPG to PNG improve image quality?
No. Conversion can't recover detail that JPG compression already discarded, but it does stop any further quality loss — useful if you plan to edit and re-save the image.
Why is my PNG larger than the original JPG?
PNG is lossless and stores every pixel, so photos that JPG compressed heavily grow when converted. If small size matters more than transparency, WebP is a better target.
Are my JPG files uploaded to a server?
No. Conversion runs entirely in your browser using the Canvas API, so your images never leave your device.
