Frequently Asked Questions
WebP is a modern image format developed by Google that provides superior compression compared to JPEG and PNG. WebP images are typically 25-35% smaller than equivalent JPEG images, and 26% smaller than PNG images, while maintaining the same quality. This means faster website loading times and reduced bandwidth usage.
WebP is now supported by all modern browsers including Chrome, Firefox, Safari (14+), Edge, and Opera. Over 95% of internet users can view WebP images. For older browsers, you can provide fallback images in PNG/JPG format.
WebP supports both lossy and lossless compression. At quality setting 80 (recommended), most images maintain excellent visual quality while achieving significant file size reduction. You can adjust the quality slider to find the perfect balance between size and quality for your needs.
Yes! WebP fully supports transparency (alpha channel) just like PNG. When you convert a PNG with transparency to WebP, the transparency is preserved. WebP transparency is often 3x more efficient than PNG.
Absolutely! Our converter works both ways. You can convert WebP images back to PNG or JPG format. This is useful for compatibility with older software or for editing in programs that don't support WebP yet.
For most images, quality 80 provides an excellent balance between file size and visual quality. For photographs, you can go as low as 70-75. For images with text or sharp edges, use 85-95. For lossless quality (larger files), use 100.
On average, WebP files are 25-35% smaller than JPEG and 26% smaller than PNG at similar quality levels. Actual savings depend on the image content and quality settings. Our tool shows you the exact size reduction after conversion.
Yes! All images are processed securely on our server and are automatically deleted immediately after you download the converted file. We do not store, view, or share your images with anyone.
