Converting JPG to PNG changes your image to a lossless format that preserves every pixel exactly. This is useful when you need to edit an image further without additional quality loss, when you want to add transparency to portions of the image, or when working with software that prefers PNG format. While the file will be larger than the original JPG, you gain perfect quality preservation for subsequent edits and the ability to work with PNG-specific features like transparency.

## How it works

1. **Upload Image** — Select or drag and drop your image file (JPG, PNG, WebP, etc.)
2. **Choose Format** — Select your target format: JPG, PNG, WebP, or AVIF
3. **Download** — Get your converted image in the new format instantly

## Use cases

## Tips

## FAQ
