A fast, lightweight image format converter — convert single files, batch-convert entire folders, control quality, and strip metadata, all without leaving your workflow.
- Drag & drop images or folders directly into the app
- Batch conversion of entire directories
- 9 supported formats — PNG, JPG, WEBP, GIF, BMP, TIFF, TGA, QOI, PBM
- Quality control for lossy and compression-based formats (JPG, WebP, PNG)
- Metadata stripping — removes EXIF, IPTC, XMP, and ICC profile data
- Custom output folder — redirect output anywhere, or default to alongside the source
- Dark and light theme with automatic system theme detection
- CLI companion for terminal-based and scripted workflows
When no output format is specified, PixPorter uses these defaults:

Quality applies to JPG, WebP, and PNG output. For JPG and WebP it controls pixel fidelity — lower values produce smaller, lossier files. For PNG it controls compression level only; PNG is always lossless and no pixel data is ever discarded.
