Who It's Useful For

FAQ

Does converting to WebP keep my image's transparent background?

Yes. Transparent areas in the PNG stay transparent in the WebP output.

Is my file uploaded to a server?

No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser; nothing is uploaded.

Why is my WebP file not much smaller than the PNG?

Some images, especially simple graphics with few colors, compress similarly in both formats. Photos typically see bigger savings.
