Free PNG to SVG converter online
Many "PNG to SVG" converters just wrap the PNG inside an SVG file, which doesn't make it scalable at all. This tool traces the shapes and colours in your image and rebuilds them as vector paths, so the result can be enlarged to any size, recoloured and edited in Illustrator, Inkscape, Figma or Cricut Design Space.
Tracing works best on logos, icons, signatures, clip art and line drawings with clear edges and few colours. Photos can be traced too, but they become stylised posters with many paths.

Frequently asked questions
Why does my SVG look different from the original?
Tracing simplifies the image into flat shapes. Increase the detail and the number of colours for a closer match, or reduce them for a cleaner, smaller file.
Can I use the SVG with Cricut or Silhouette?
Yes. Use the 'Black & white line art' style for single-colour cut files.
Is the PNG to SVG free?
Yes. The PNG to SVG is completely free with no sign-up, no watermarks, no daily limits and no premium tier.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. FileStripe processes your files locally in your web browser using JavaScript. Nothing is uploaded, so the PNG to SVG is safe for private photos and confidential documents and even works offline once the page has loaded.
Does it work on iPhone and Android?
Yes. The PNG to SVG works in Safari, Chrome, Firefox, Edge and Samsung Internet on phones, tablets and computers. On a phone you can pick files from your photo library or files app and share the result straight to another app.
