About this tool

Why convert BMP to JPG?

  • What you gain

    BMP stores pixels uncompressed, so files are enormous. As a JPG, a photo typically shrinks by 90% or more and becomes easy to share.
  • Good to know

    JPG is lossy. If you need a pixel-perfect copy, convert BMP to PNG instead.

How it works

  1. Step 1:Add your BMP images

    Drop them in, choose them from your device or paste from the clipboard. Add as many as you like: images in other formats convert too.

  2. Step 2:Convert to JPG

    JPG is already picked for you. Set the quality if you like, then press Convert and each image becomes a JPG on your device.

  3. Step 3:Download

    Save images one by one, or all at once as a .zip.

Questions, answered

Will converting BMP to JPG reduce quality?

JPG is lossy: it trades a little detail you’re unlikely to notice for a much smaller file. At the default quality most people can’t tell the difference, and you can raise the quality if you want to be extra careful.

Will the JPG be smaller than the BMP?

Usually, yes. JPG compresses images more efficiently than BMP, so most files get noticeably smaller. You’ll see the exact size of every file, and how much you saved, as soon as it’s converted.

Can I convert lots of BMP files at once?

Yes. Add as many as you like: they’re converted side by side on your device, and you can download them one by one or all together as a .zip.

Do my images leave my device?

No. The BMP to JPG conversion runs entirely in your browser, so your images are never sent anywhere. There’s no sign-up and no limit on how many you convert.
