SVG is a vector image format that stores graphics as mathematical paths rather than a grid of pixels. SVG files scale to any size without quality loss, which makes them ideal for logos, icons, and illustrations that need to look sharp at every resolution.
When should I convert SVG to another format?
+
Convert SVG to a raster format like PNG or JPG when you need to embed an image in a system that does not render vectors — social media uploads, older email clients, image-only documents, or print workflows that demand fixed pixel dimensions.
Will converting SVG reduce image quality?
+
Converting SVG to a lossless format like PNG locks in the current pixels with no further loss. Converting SVG to another lossy format causes generational quality loss because the new encoder re-encodes already-lossy data — keep the source if you plan to edit further.
Does MOV.to keep my SVG files private?
+
Your SVG files are processed over HTTPS, never read by humans, and deleted from our servers automatically after conversion. No watermarks, no email signup, no resale of image data.
How large a SVG file can I convert?
+
Free users can upload SVG files up to 100 MB. Pro users go up to several GB per file and can batch-convert many files in one job.
Can I convert SVG on my phone?
+
Yes. MOV.to runs entirely in the browser, so iPhone, iPad and Android users can convert SVG files without installing any app. The result downloads straight to your camera roll or downloads folder.
Do I need Photoshop or any other software for SVG?
+
No. The conversion runs server-side. You upload SVG, pick the target format, and download the result — no Photoshop, GIMP, ImageMagick or local install required.
Can I batch-convert many SVG files at once?
+
Yes. Upload multiple SVG files in a single drop and MOV.to converts them in parallel. Free users can queue a couple at a time; Pro users have unlimited batch conversion.
Is converting SVG on MOV.to free?
+
Yes — single-file SVG conversion is free with no signup. Pro features (very large files, batch jobs, OCR, advanced edits) live behind an optional plan.
What output format gives the best result for SVG?
+
For web delivery, convert SVG to WebP — smaller files, similar quality. For editable masters, use PNG or TIFF. For email and broad compatibility, JPG remains the safe default.
