Why convert ICO to JPG?

It is only meant for icons, not for large photos. As a JPG any phone, computer or website opens it, and photos stay small.

About the formats

ICO, Windows icons and favicons

ICO is the container for Windows icons and website favicons, holding several sizes in one file.

Strengths: A single ICO carries the icon at 16, 32, 48 and 256 pixels so it looks sharp everywhere.

Limits: It is only meant for icons, not for large photos.

JPG, the most widespread photo format

JPG (or JPEG) compresses photos lossily: it drops details the eye barely notices so the file is much smaller.

Strengths: Every phone, computer, social network and app can open it, and it is ideal for photographs.

Limits: It has no transparency and loses a little quality each time it is edited and saved again.

Frequently asked questions

Is my ICO uploaded to a server to turn it into JPG?

No. The ICO to JPG conversion runs entirely in your browser, with code downloaded from this site and executed on your device. You can check it in the Network tab of the developer tools or by going offline after the page loads.

What happens to a transparent background going from ICO to JPG?

JPG has no transparency: transparent areas of the ICO are filled with the colour you choose (white by default).

Do I lose quality converting ICO to JPG?

A little: JPG uses lossy compression. At the default quality the difference is not visible to the naked eye, and you can raise it in the options for maximum quality.

Is there a size limit?

Your device’s memory sets the limit: on desktop, images up to about 100 megapixels; on mobile, up to 16.7. If an image is too large you are told before it starts.

Can I convert several ICO files at once?

Yes. Drop as many ICO files as you like: several are converted at the same time, depending on your processor cores, and when they finish you can download each JPG or all of them in a ZIP.
