JPG to PNG
Convert JPG photos to lossless PNG.
Converting a JPG to PNG is about compatibility, not quality. Some design tools, upload forms and icon makers ask for PNG, and PNG is the format to keep editing in, since saving it again never adds new compression marks.
Almost any file
Images, vector art, video, audio, documents, spreadsheets, slides, ebooks and archives: more than 400 conversions. Before anything runs, Filebender says what a conversion will lose and estimates the size of video, audio and many pictures; other files show their size once converted. It compresses PDFs, pictures and videos to the size you choose.
No ads, no watermarks
With a free account: 20 files a day, 2 of them videos, each up to 500 MB. No plan has ads, and nothing is stamped on your files. A pass is one payment that never renews, and one you haven't used can be refunded in full.
Private by default
Files are deleted an hour after converting, or at once when you ask, and photo location is removed unless you choose to keep it. Photos converted to JPG, PNG or WebP are done on your device when your browser can, so they never leave it. They still need your account and count towards your plan.
How to convert JPG to PNG
- Create a free account with Google or your email address, or sign in.
- Choose your JPG files: drop them on the box, pick them from your computer, open them from Google Drive, or paste a link.
- Pick the format each file should become. The gear button has size, quality and other settings.
- Press “Convert”, then download each file, or all of them in one ZIP.
What PNG can and can't do for a JPG
PNG stores the pixels the JPG shows, so any blockiness from the JPG's own compression stays. What PNG adds is a clean slate: crop it, annotate it and save it as often as you like, and it won't lose anything more. Expect the file to grow, often to several times the JPG's size for a photo.
Transparency
A JPG has no transparent areas, so the PNG won't have any either; converting doesn't remove a background. For a see-through logo, start from an SVG or from a PNG that was made transparent.
Where it's converted
A JPG of up to 50 MB in standard sRGB colour converts on your device and isn't uploaded, provided your browser and device have room for it. It counts as one of your files all the same, and you need to be signed in to your account. Photos in wider colour, like many from recent phones, are converted on Filebender's servers.

Questions
Why is my PNG so much bigger?
JPG throws detail away to save space; PNG keeps everything it's given, right down to the JPG's own noise. The PNG is packed without changing a pixel, but a photo simply takes more room when nothing is thrown away.
Are camera details kept?
Not by default: the location, camera and date details are removed, after the picture has been turned the right way up. Tick “Keep photo details” in the settings to keep them; the file is then converted on Filebender's servers.
Can I turn a JPG into an SVG instead?
Yes, with PNG to SVG, which takes JPGs too and traces the picture into shapes. That works for logos and line drawings rather than photos. With a free account, either way, you can convert 20 files a day, each up to 500 MB.
Is Filebender free?
Yes, with a free account: 20 files every day (up to 2 of them videos), each up to 500 MB, with no watermark and no ads. Make the account with Google or your email address. Files converted on your device count the same way as the rest. If you need more, a Day, Week or Month Pass is one payment that never renews; see the Pricing page.
What happens to my files?
It depends on the file. Pictures your browser can convert itself, and everything you do with the PDF tools, from merging and splitting PDFs to putting photos into one, are handled on your device and never leave it, unless you choose to send a file to Filebender's servers. They still need your account: Filebender receives only their type and size, to count them against your plan like any other file. Everything else is converted on Filebender's servers on Google Cloud and deleted an hour after the conversion finishes, or straight away when you press “Delete files now”. Nobody looks at your files, and they're never used for anything else.
