Convert screenshots or bitmaps (PALM) online for free
The converter easily converts your PALM images to various formats - free and online. No Samsung One UI or or other Raster Image software needed.
The converter also works in reverse, so you can convert other "Mobile Screenshot" formats to PALM without using software like Samsung One UI or a similar tool.
The .palm file extension represents a unique intersection of modern mobile gestures and retro computing. Primarily, users encounter this format as an Android screenshot artifact generated by Samsung devices. Specifically, these files are often internal caching or temporary data dumps created when using the Palm Swipe to Capture gesture feature in Samsung One UI. While these files are typically hidden, they may appear after data recovery, system backups, or transfer errors, presenting as unopenable files on your PC. In this context, the file is often just a standard PNG or JPG wrapped in a proprietary container or simply mislabeled.
Secondarily, .palm refers to the Palm OS Bitmap, a legacy graphics format used by Palm Pilot PDAs in the late 1990s and early 2000s. These files (often technically Tbmp resources) are distinct from modern images; they use outdated compression and color palettes (1-bit to 16-bit) that modern software like Microsoft Photos or Preview cannot interpret. Whether you are recovering a lost screenshot from a Galaxy S24 or archiving pixel art from a Palm V, conversion is essential. For Samsung files, the goal is to normalize the stream to a standard PNG; for Palm OS files, the goal is to decode the obsolete structure into a viewable format.

The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our PALM converter.
