The formats
BMP and JPG at a glance
What is a BMP file?
BMP is the uncompressed bitmap format from early versions of Windows. It stores every pixel as is, so quality is perfect but files are large, often ten times the size of a PNG. Today it's mostly needed by older software, embedded devices, and some printers and label makers. It opens in Windows Paint and Photos, macOS Preview, browsers, and nearly every image editor.
What is a JPG file?
JPG (also written JPEG) is the most common format for photos. Its lossy compression discards detail your eye is unlikely to notice, which keeps files small, and you can trade size for quality when you save. It has no transparency, and saving the same image again and again slowly adds visible artifacts. It opens in practically everything: browsers, phones, cameras, Windows Photos, macOS Preview, Word and Google Docs, every photo editor, and every website that accepts uploads.
Good to know
What changes when you convert BMP to JPG
- JPG is lossy, so the image is re-encoded at the quality you choose. At the default of 90%, the difference is hard to see.
- Metadata such as the camera model, date, and GPS location isn't copied to the new file, so you don't share your location by accident.
- Very large images, around 100 megapixels or more, can exceed what the browser allows, especially on phones.
FAQ
Questions, answered
Is this BMP to JPG converter free?
Yes. It's completely free, with no sign-up, no watermark, and no limit on how many files you convert. It costs Ethical Tube nothing to run, because the conversion happens on your own device rather than on a server.
Are my files uploaded anywhere?
No. The conversion runs inside your browser with the browser's built-in image codecs plus small WebAssembly encoders, so your files never leave your device. Once the page has loaded, it even works offline.
Does converting BMP to JPG lose quality?
A little, because JPG is a lossy format. At the default quality of 90% the difference is hard to see. Raise the quality toward 100% to keep more detail, or lower it to make smaller files.
Can I convert several BMP files at once?
Yes. Add as many as you like. They're converted one after another, and you can download each JPG file as soon as it's ready or all of them in one ZIP file.
Does it work on iPhone, Android, Mac, and Windows?
Yes. It works in Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari, on computers, iPhones, and Android phones.
What can open a JPG file?
Practically everything: browsers, phones, cameras, Windows Photos, macOS Preview, Word and Google Docs, every photo editor, and every website that accepts uploads.
Is there a file size limit?
There's no upload limit because nothing is uploaded. The practical limit is your device's memory: everyday files are fine, and most computers handle images up to about 100 megapixels.
