What happens to your image going from SVG to PNG
- The SVG is rendered at its own width and height. For a bigger, crisper PNG, the SVG to PNG tool lets you choose 2×, 4× or 8× scale.
SVG vs PNG in brief
- SVG is a vector format that describes shapes and text as code, so it stays crisp at any size. Lots of apps, social platforms, office documents and email programs can't show SVG and need an ordinary image instead.
- PNG is lossless, meaning every pixel is stored exactly, and it supports full transparency. That suits screenshots, logos and graphics perfectly, but a photo saved as PNG is often several times larger than the same shot as a JPG.
iPhone tips
- You don't need anything from the App Store – the tool works inside Safari and the file stays on your iPhone.

Questions & answers
Does changing SVG to PNG lower the quality?
No more quality is lost, because PNG is lossless. Your PNG matches the SVG exactly.

Yes. Add as many as you want; each is converted separately, and Download all bundles them into a single ZIP.
