Supported conversions

Rows are the format you have, columns are the format you want. A tick links to that converter. This table is generated from the conversion engine, so it always matches what the site can actually do. Whether your particular browser can run a conversion is checked again on the page itself.

GIF, TIFF can be read but not written, so they appear as sources rather than targets. HEIC is not supported in either direction.

About these tools

Image conversion is the largest part of this site, and all of it runs on your own device. Choosing a file hands it to your browser's image decoder, the picture is drawn onto a canvas, and it is encoded again in the format you asked for. Nothing is uploaded, which is why a 40 MB photograph converts as quickly as a small one: there is no connection to wait for.

Not every browser can write every format. Support for AVIF and WebP encoding in particular varies by browser and version, so each tool measures what your browser can actually do before offering it, rather than assuming and handing you a file whose contents do not match its extension.

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert an image without uploading it?

Open any converter on this page and choose your file. The conversion happens inside your browser using your device's own image decoders, so the picture never travels to a server. You can confirm it: open your browser's developer tools, watch the Network panel, and convert. No request carries the image.

Which image format should I use?

For photographs on the web, WebP is usually the best balance: roughly 25 to 35 percent smaller than JPEG at the same visible quality. Use JPEG when something old has to open the file. Use PNG for screenshots, logos, line art, and anything with transparency or sharp edges. Use AVIF when you control the audience and want the smallest file.

Does converting an image lose quality?

It depends on the target. PNG and BMP are lossless, so the pixels survive exactly. JPEG, WebP, and AVIF are lossy and discard detail during encoding. Converting a JPEG to another lossy format adds a second round of loss on top of what the original already had, so convert from an original whenever you can.

Does converting remove EXIF and GPS data from my photos?

Yes. Metadata is not carried across, so camera settings, timestamps, and GPS coordinates are dropped. That is a privacy benefit if you are about to publish a photo, and worth knowing if you were relying on those fields. Orientation is the exception: it is applied, so a photo taken sideways comes out upright.

How do I make a favicon?

Use one of the ICO converters. They write 16, 32, and 48 pixel versions into a single .ico file, each rendered from your original rather than scaled down from one another, which is what browsers expect to find at /favicon.ico.

Can I convert HEIC photos from my iPhone?

Not yet. HEIC needs a decoder that no browser ships, and the available one carries a licence this project has chosen not to take on for a format it could only read and never write. The honest answer is that it is missing rather than that it half works. On the iPhone itself, Settings, Camera, Formats, Most Compatible will save new photos as JPEG.

Can I turn a photo into a real vector SVG?

Only approximately, and the tool says so. A raster image has no shapes underneath it, so tracing draws new ones around regions of colour. On a flat logo the result can be excellent and genuinely scalable. On a photograph it produces thousands of paths and a file larger than the original.

How large an image can I convert?

The limit is 50 MB per image. The real constraint is memory rather than file size: an image decodes to roughly four bytes per pixel, so a very large picture can occupy far more memory than its file suggests, and phones run out sooner than laptops.

Why is the format I want missing from the list?

Because your browser cannot write it. Support for encoding AVIF and WebP in particular varies by browser and by version, so every tool here asks the browser what it can actually produce before offering it. A format that is offered will work; one that is missing would have handed you a file whose contents did not match its extension.

Can I resize or compress while converting?

Yes on both counts, and it is usually the right moment to do it. Every converter here takes an optional width and height, and the lossy targets take a quality level, so one pass does the format change and the resizing together rather than encoding the picture twice. There are also dedicated resize and compress tools when the format is already what you want.
