How to convert PNG to SVG
- Drop your PNG in, or tap to choose it. A logo, icon or line drawing with flat colours works best.
- Pick a preset: Sharp for logos and icons, Smooth for softer edges, Detailed when small shapes matter.
- Set how many colours to keep - fewer colours means a cleaner, smaller SVG.
- Press Trace, check the preview against the original, then download the SVG.
The tracing runs inside your browser with JavaScript, so your image is never uploaded to a server. Nothing is stored, there is no watermark and no sign-up.
Turn a PNG logo into a real vector SVG
A PNG is a grid of pixels, so it blurs the moment you enlarge it. An SVG is a set of shapes and curves, so it stays perfectly sharp at any size — on a business card or a shop banner. Converting between them is not a simple re-save: the pixels have to be traced, meaning the tool works out where the edges are and redraws them as paths.
What traces well — and what does not
Flat artwork traces beautifully: logos, app icons, signatures, stamps, line drawings, black-and-white scans. Photographs do not. A photo has millions of subtle tones and no clean edges, so tracing turns it into a poster of flat blobs and produces an enormous file. If you have a photo, keep it as a PNG or JPG.
Getting a clean result
Start with the fewest colours that still look right — a two-colour logo often needs just 2 or 3. Every extra colour adds another layer of paths, which is what makes traced SVGs bloated. Use Sharp for anything with straight lines and corners, Smooth for rounded artwork and handwriting, and Detailed only when small elements are disappearing. Compare the two panels above before you download.
An honest word about tracing
Tracing is an approximation, not a recovery of the original design. If the logo was drawn in Illustrator, Figma or Inkscape, the real vector file will always be cleaner than anything traced from a PNG — it is worth asking the designer for it. Tracing is the right answer when the PNG is all that survives. Going the other way is lossless and instant: SVG to PNG.
Frequently asked questions
Is this PNG to SVG converter free?
Yes - completely free, with no watermark and no sign-up.
Is my image uploaded to a server?
No. The tracing runs on your own device, so the file never leaves it.
Will a photograph convert well?
No. Tracing redraws an image as flat coloured shapes, and a photo has millions of subtle tones - the result looks like a poster and the file becomes huge. Tracing is for logos, icons, signatures and line art.
Why does my traced SVG look different from the PNG?
Because it genuinely is different. The tracer approximates pixels with curves, so fine detail, soft shadows and gradients are simplified. Fewer colours and a Sharp preset usually look closest for logos.
Is this the same as the original vector file?
No. If the logo was designed in Illustrator or Figma, the original vector will always be cleaner - ask for the .svg or .ai file if you can. Tracing is what you do when only a PNG exists.
How do I get a smaller SVG file?
Reduce the number of colours. Every extra colour adds another layer of paths, which is what makes traced files large.
Can I edit the result?
Yes. The output is real paths, so it opens and edits in Figma, Illustrator, Inkscape or any SVG editor.
Does it work on Android and iPhone?
Yes, in any modern mobile browser. Large images take longer to trace on a phone, so start with something under about 1000 pixels wide.
