Image Converter

Detect the real input format, decode it locally, and create JPG, JPEG, PNG, WebP, or browser-supported AVIF output.

The practical guide

Format conversion with honest capability checks.

Image formats differ in compression, transparency, animation, compatibility, and intended use. This converter inspects the actual file, then loads only the local decoder it needs.

01

Photo and web formats

JPG and JPEG use the same widely compatible, lossy photo format; the two options simply choose the filename extension. PNG is lossless and supports transparency. WebP can combine small files with transparency, while AVIF can be highly efficient but its encoding support still varies by browser.

02

HEIC and specialist inputs

HEIC/HEIF is common on newer phones but less universally supported, so converting HEIC to JPG or PNG makes sharing easier. GIF can contain animation, BMP is an older uncompressed bitmap, TIFF can hold multiple high-quality pages, SVG is vector-based, and ICO packages icon sizes.

03

Common conversions that work here

Convert HEIC to JPG or PNG, PNG to JPG, JPG to PNG or WebP, WebP to JPG, AVIF to JPG, and TIFF to JPG or PNG. JPG output is useful for broad photo compatibility; PNG is the safer choice when the source has transparency.

04

Transparency and quality

JPEG cannot store transparent pixels, so the converter composites them onto your chosen background. JPG/JPEG and WebP quality controls trade detail for file size; PNG remains lossless. Converting JPG to PNG does not recover detail already removed by JPEG compression.

05

Frames, pages, and browser limits

HEIC uses the main image, multi-page TIFF uses the first page, animated GIF exports the first rendered frame, sanitized SVG may lose complex features, and ICO uses its largest valid embedded resolution. AVIF output appears only when this browser proves it can encode a real AVIF image.

Privacy by architecture

Your files and tool inputs stay in your browser.

The selected files, inputs, settings, and outputs are processed in this page and are not uploaded to any server.

Questions, answered

Frequently asked questions

Does conversion upload my image?

No. Native codecs and bundled JavaScript decoders run locally in this page.

Which format should I choose?

Choose JPG for broadly compatible photos, PNG for lossless graphics or transparency, and WebP for modern web delivery. AVIF is available only when your browser can encode it correctly.

Why is AVIF disabled?

Canvas AVIF encoding varies by browser. The option is disabled unless a runtime test returns an actual image/avif blob.

What happens to animated GIFs?

This converter intentionally exports one still frame and shows a warning when animation is detected.

Are SVGs safe to render?

Before rendering, the tool removes scripts, embedded HTML, event attributes, JavaScript URLs, and remote references. Complex SVG features may therefore change.
