Is JPEG the same as JPG?

Yes, they are the same image format with different file extensions. This page accepts .jpeg and .jpg files (they are the same format).

Can I remove the background from a JPEG for free?

Yes. It is completely free, with no signup, no watermark and no limit on the number of images.

What format is the result saved in?

The result is saved as a JPEG. Because JPEG cannot store transparency, the removed background is filled with clean white.

Is my JPEG image uploaded to a server?

No. The background is removed inside your browser, so your image stays on your device.

What is the maximum JPEG file size?

You can upload JPEG images up to 20MB.

I need a transparent background — what should I use?

Use the PNG background remover. PNG supports transparency, so the background is fully removed instead of turned white.
