JPG to PSD Converter
Turn JPG (JPEG) files into PSD in seconds. Everything happens on your device: nothing is uploaded, and there's no limit.
Your images are processed in this browser tab and never uploaded.
Why convert JPG to PSD?
JPG has no transparency and loses a little quality each time it's re-saved.
A PSD opens straight into Photoshop and other editors as a layer you can keep working on.
What to expect
- The image is saved as a one-layer Photoshop document that opens in Photoshop, Photopea, GIMP and Affinity Photo.
- Converting to PSD keeps every pixel of your JPG, but it can't restore detail that JPG compression already removed.

About the formats
JPG (JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group), 1992) is the most widely used photo format in the world. It uses lossy compression that throws away detail the eye barely notices, which keeps photos small. JPG and JPEG are the same format: the shorter extension comes from old Windows versions that only allowed three letters.
PSD (Adobe Photoshop Document, 1990) is Photoshop's own working format. It keeps layers, masks and editing data, which makes files large and only readable in software that understands Photoshop documents.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert JPG to PSD?
Drop your JPG files into the box above (or tap Select files), check the options, then press Convert. Each PSD downloads on its own, or you can download them all as one ZIP file.
Are my files uploaded anywhere?
No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser on your own device. Your JPG files are never sent to a server, so they stay private, and it works even on a slow connection once the page has loaded.
Is there a limit on how many JPG files I can convert?
No. Convert as many as you like, for free, without signing up. Very large batches are processed one after another so your browser stays responsive.
Will I lose quality converting to PSD?
No. PSD is lossless, so the converted image keeps every pixel of the original.
Does it work on iPhone and Android?
Yes. It works in Safari, Chrome, Firefox and Edge on phones, tablets and computers. Nothing to install.
