Why convert images to WebP?

WebP files are small and every current browser shows them, so pages load faster. WebP keeps transparent areas. A PNG usually comes out more than 90% smaller, a JPEG more than 75% and an iPhone HEIC photo more than 50%.

WebP vs PNG, JPEG and HEIC

WebP is the safe default for a website: small files, and every current browser shows them. PNG and JPEG open in every app, so keep one for email, Etsy, Amazon and upload forms. HEIC can't be shown in most browsers at all.

“While there are other ways to achieve a 70% reduction in image size, TinyPNG is the easiest and fastest method I’ve found. Plus, it doesn’t alter the image file names, which is great for maintaining SEO integrity.”

Converting to WebP: frequently asked questions

How much smaller will my WebP be?

It depends on what you upload. Usually more than 90% smaller for a PNG, more than 75% for a JPEG and more than 50% for a HEIC, measured on real images converted with TinyPNG. AVIF images are already small, so they change less.

Will my images lose quality?

A JPEG, AVIF or HEIC was already compressed and WebP compresses again, so a little detail goes. At normal viewing sizes it is hard to spot.

Can I convert WebP back to PNG or JPEG?

Yes. Go to WebP to PNG or WebP to JPG. Detail removed by compression doesn't come back.

Does WebP support transparency?

Yes, in both its lossy and lossless mode. Converting to JPG fills transparent areas with white, and we ask first; convert to PNG, JXL or AVIF to keep them.

Is WebP lossless or lossy?

Both: a WebP file can use either mode. Converting a lossy WebP to another lossy format, such as JPG, compresses it once more. We save WebP lossy, or lossless when that comes out smaller.

Which browsers and apps support WebP?

About 97% of browsers, including Safari from version 16. Outside the browser it is patchier: Windows and Office need a free Microsoft Store extension, Gmail turns WebP into JPEG, and many upload forms reject it.

Is AVIF better than WebP?

AVIF is often smaller for photos, but WebP is accepted in more places; Shopify, for example, takes WebP uploads and not AVIF. JPEG and PNG still open everywhere, while AVIF fails in some shops, design tools, older Windows apps and email.

Why does my iPhone save photos as HEIC?

To save space: Apple says HEIC compresses better than JPEG at the same visual quality. The catch is compatibility, so you often need a JPG before sharing.

How do I convert images to WebP?

Add your images above, choose WebP and download the result. It works in your browser on Windows, Mac, iPhone and Android, with nothing to install.

What is a WebP file?

WebP is an image format from Google, built on the VP8 video codec. It stores photos and graphics in less space than JPEG or PNG, keeps transparency, and can be lossy or lossless. Every current browser shows it, which is why websites often serve their images as WebP.

Is it free?

Yes. Web Free converts 3 images per session, up to 5 MB each, without an account. Web Pro takes bigger files, and Web Ultra converts as many as you like.

Are my images private?

Yes. We store your images encrypted, download links expire after 8 hours, and we delete your images from our servers within 48 hours.

What happens to the metadata?

We remove all metadata, such as camera details, GPS location and editing history, to keep files small. Want to keep metadata? Use the developer API: it can keep the copyright, creation date and location.
