How to convert an image in a few steps

Changing an image's format takes under a minute.

Step 1: Open the tool

Go to Convert. It runs entirely in your browser — nothing to install, no account to create.

Step 2: Add your image

Drag and drop your file, or click to browse. JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, GIF, TIFF, and HEIC are supported (up to 50 MB), and everything runs locally.

Step 3: Choose the output format

Pick where you want to end up:

  • JPEG — universal and compact
  • PNG — lossless with transparency
  • WebP / AVIF — great for web
  • GIF — for animation

Adjust the quality control where it applies.

Step 4: Download the converted file

Download your converted image. Repeat as often as you like.

Tips

  • Convert to JPEG if a file isn't opening on another device
  • Choose PNG when you need transparency
  • Pick WebP when file size matters for the web
