Convert PNG to SVG

Convert PNG to SVG — free, online, pixel-perfect.

Turn any PNG image into a clean, editable SVG vector in seconds. VectorDrop traces your PNG into crisp vector paths that scale to any size without pixelation. Free, browser-native, and no signup required for the playground.

Why convert PNG to SVG?

  • SVG scales infinitely — a single file works for tiny icons and huge billboards
  • SVG is hand-editable — tweak colours and paths in Figma, Illustrator, or code
  • SVG has tiny file sizes for icons and logos compared to PNG
  • SVG supports CSS, animation, and interactivity in the browser
  • SVG is ideal for design systems, icon libraries, and responsive UI

How to convert PNG to SVG

  1. 01
    Upload your PNG

    Drag and drop your PNG into the VectorDrop playground, or browse and select it. Files stay local in your browser.

  2. 02
    Auto-vectorise

    VectorDrop traces the raster into clean SVG paths automatically. Live preview updates instantly.

  3. 03
    Tune the output

    Adjust detail, smoothing, and colour handling in the playground until the vector matches your intent.

  4. 04
    Export SVG

    Download a production-ready SVG file. Open it directly in Figma, Illustrator, Inkscape, or any SVG editor.

What to expect from the output

Clean PNG sources (icons, logos, flat illustrations, line art) convert to clean SVG with minimal node counts. Noisy or photographic PNGs will convert but may need tuning — VectorDrop's playground gives you live controls for this.

Frequently asked questions

Is PNG to SVG conversion lossless?

PNG is raster and SVG is vector — the conversion rebuilds the artwork as paths rather than pixels. For icons and flat art, the result is effectively lossless at any scale. For photographic PNGs, the SVG is a traced approximation.

What PNG sizes work best?

Anywhere from 64px icons up to multi-megapixel source art. Larger, cleaner sources give more precise traces.

Can I convert transparent PNG to SVG?

Yes. Transparency is preserved where possible — SVG supports transparent backgrounds natively.

Is this really free?

Yes. PNG to SVG conversion is free on VectorDrop, with no watermark or export paywall for standard use.
