How to Convert Images Between Formats Online
SmarterSources's Smart Image Converter is an all-in-one tool that lets you convert images between any popular format directly in your browser. Whether you need to turn a PNG into a JPG for a smaller email attachment, convert a WebP to PNG for broader compatibility, or change any other format pair, this single tool handles it all. Just pick your source and target format, drop your files, and download the results in seconds.
Why Use a Universal Image Converter?
Instead of searching for a different tool every time you need a specific conversion, this converter supports every common format pair in one place. It saves time, avoids confusion, and gives you consistent results no matter which formats you are working with. Whether you are a designer preparing web assets, a photographer optimizing images for social media, or anyone who works with images regularly, having a single reliable converter simplifies your workflow.
Supported Formats and When to Use Each
JPG is ideal for photographs and complex images where small file sizes matter most. PNG preserves transparency and provides lossless quality, making it perfect for logos, screenshots, and graphics with text. WebP is a modern format that combines the best of both worlds with excellent compression and transparency support. SVG, GIF, BMP, AVIF, and HEIC can all be used as source formats and converted into any of the three output formats.
Complete Privacy Guarantee
Every conversion happens entirely within your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API. Your images are never uploaded to any server, never stored remotely, and never transmitted over the internet. This makes SmarterSources the safest way to convert private, sensitive, or confidential images online. Your files stay on your device from start to finish.
Frequently Asked Questions
What image formats can I convert between?
You can convert from PNG, JPG, WebP, SVG, GIF, BMP, AVIF, and HEIC into JPG, PNG, or WebP. The Auto-detect option identifies your file format automatically, so you do not even need to know the source format. This covers virtually every common image conversion need in a single tool.
What happens to transparency when converting to JPG?
Since JPG does not support transparency, all transparent areas are automatically filled with a white background during conversion. This prevents the common issue where transparent pixels turn black. If you need to keep transparency, choose PNG or WebP as your output format instead.
Does the quality slider affect PNG output?
No. PNG is a lossless format, so the quality slider is hidden when PNG is selected as the output format. Every pixel is preserved exactly as it appears in the original. The quality slider only appears when converting to JPG or WebP, where you can balance file size against visual quality.
Can I convert multiple files at once?
Yes. This converter supports batch processing. You can drop or select as many images as you want, and they will all be converted in one pass. Each file gets its own download button, and a Download All button appears for convenience when you have multiple results.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. SmarterSources processes everything entirely in your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API. Your images never leave your device. Nothing is uploaded, stored, or transmitted. This makes it the safest online image converter available for sensitive or private content.
Why can I only convert to JPG, PNG, or WebP?
These three formats cover the vast majority of use cases. JPG provides the smallest file sizes for photos, PNG offers lossless quality with transparency, and WebP delivers excellent compression with modern browser support. Browsers can natively encode images to these formats using the Canvas API, which means no server-side processing is needed and your files stay completely private.
