How do I convert PNG to JPG?

Add your PNG file to the upload area above, then press Convert. The JPG file downloads straight to your device. You do not need an account, and there is no watermark.

Are my files uploaded to a server?

No. This conversion runs entirely inside your browser using WebAssembly, so the file never leaves your device — you can even disconnect from the internet after the page loads and it will still work.

Does converting to JPG reduce quality?

JPG uses lossy compression, so some data is discarded. At the default quality the difference is very hard to see or hear; raise the quality setting if you need to be certain, at the cost of a larger file.

How large a file can I convert?

Up to 120 MB per file for this conversion. Because the work happens in your browser, the practical limit is your device's memory — larger files work on a desktop with plenty of RAM and may fail on an older phone.

Can I convert several files at once?

Yes. Add as many as you like and press Convert All. Each file is processed independently, so one failure does not stop the rest, and you can download everything together as a ZIP.

Can I use this on my phone?

Yes. FileTools360 works in mobile browsers on iOS and Android, including choosing files straight from your camera roll. Very large videos may run out of memory on a phone — those are better converted on a laptop.

PNG and JPG explained

PNG is a lossless raster format built to replace GIF. It stores every pixel exactly as given and supports a full 8-bit alpha channel, which means genuine partial transparency rather than the single transparent colour GIF offers.

JPEG is a lossy image format designed for photographs. It works by discarding detail the human eye is least likely to notice, particularly in colour and in smooth gradients, which is why it compresses photos far better than it compresses text or line art.

Where PNG files come from: Screenshots, exported logos and UI assets, and anything designed rather than photographed.
Where JPG is used: Digital cameras, phone screenshots on Android, and essentially every photo on the pre-2015 web.

PNG vs JPG

The two formats solve different problems, which is why converting between them involves trade-offs rather than a straight upgrade.

PNG is stronger at: Completely lossless — re-saving never degrades the image. Full alpha transparency, including soft edges and shadows. Sharp text and hard edges stay sharp.
JPG is stronger at: Opens on literally every device, browser and application ever made. Small files for photographic content. Adjustable quality, so you control the size/fidelity trade-off.

Why convert PNG to JPG?

People make this switch when they run into the limits of PNG: you are publishing photographs on the web, where it will be several times larger than it needs to be. JPG is the better fit when you are sharing a photograph and compatibility matters more than squeezing out the last few kilobytes.

PNG limitations that prompt the switch: Much larger than JPEG or WebP for photographic content. No animation in practice (APNG exists but support is inconsistent). No native support for CMYK or print colour workflows.
What you give up: No transparency — there is no alpha channel at all. Visible artefacts around sharp edges and text.

Does converting PNG to JPG reduce quality?

PNG stores your data exactly; JPG does not. Some detail is discarded permanently in exchange for a much smaller file, which is usually the right trade for sharing and publishing. Keep your PNG original if it is the only copy — the conversion cannot be undone.

Converting a JPEG to PNG does not improve its quality. It freezes the image exactly as it already is, artefacts included, in a larger file.

Saving a JPEG at 100% quality is still lossy — it is a large file that has been through the same discarding process, not a lossless copy.
