Why convert PNG to BMP?

PNG files aren't a perfect fit for every situation when it comes to compatibility, file size, or quality. You may hit attachment limits on messengers and email, slow down your website, or run into older software that can't open PNG. Converting to BMP fixes both compatibility and efficiency. IMGLOO processes PNG β†’ BMP entirely inside your browser and never uploads your files.

What to know about PNG β†’ BMP

BMP is uncompressed, so output files can be dozens of times larger than the original. Only use it when legacy Windows software explicitly requires the BMP format.

EXIF metadata (capture time, GPS location, camera info) is typically preserved in the output unless you explicitly strip it. For photos containing sensitive data, run them through a metadata-removal tool as an extra step.
