About the formats
JPG
Joint Photographic Experts Group
JPG (JPEG) is the most widely used format for photos. It compresses lossily, discarding detail the eye barely notices to keep files small. It supports neither transparency nor animation.
BMP
Windows Bitmap
BMP is the native bitmap format of Windows. It usually stores pixels with no compression at all, so it is lossless but files are very large.
Frequently asked questions
Is converting JPG to BMP free?
Yes, completely free. No account, no daily limit, no watermark and no queue.
Does converting to BMP improve quality?
No. BMP keeps the current picture exactly but cannot restore detail lost when the JPG was saved. The benefit is that further edits will not degrade it any more.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes. It works on iPhone, iPad and Android, with no app to install.
Is there a file size limit?
There is no size limit set by us. Files of hundreds of MB convert too; very large files take longer and are handled more comfortably on a computer than on a phone.
