There are many reasons to convert JPG to PNG: you need a lossless copy for further editing, you want to add a transparent layer, or you need to preserve sharp edges that JPG compression blurs. PNG uses lossless compression, meaning no image data is discarded during conversion. The tradeoff is that PNG files are typically larger than JPG — but for editing purposes or where quality is critical, this is the right choice. Switch & Shrink converts your JPG files to PNG quickly and reliably. We also strip EXIF metadata by default, removing GPS location and camera information that might be embedded in your JPG files. All processing is secure and files are deleted from our servers after download or automatic expiry.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will converting JPG to PNG improve quality?
Converting JPG to PNG will not recover quality lost during the original JPEG compression, but it will prevent any further quality loss from re-saving as JPG. The conversion itself is lossless.
Why is my PNG file larger than the original JPG?
PNG uses lossless compression while JPG uses lossy compression. PNG files are typically larger but preserve every pixel exactly, making them better for editing and graphics.
Can I convert multiple JPG files at once?
Yes! Upload up to 20 JPG files at once and download them all as a ZIP.
