Shrink PNG images into WebP files with the transparency kept - for the very smallest files try PNG to AVIF.
Using it on a website? Put the WebP in a picture element with the PNG as fallback for very old browsers.
WebP keeps transparency like PNG but is much smaller.
Lossless WebP is usually 25% smaller than PNG; lossy WebP at quality 85 is often 70-80% smaller and looks the same.
Every modern browser, WordPress and most apps open it.
| PNG | WebP | |
|---|---|---|
| Compression | Lossless | Lossy or lossless |
| Typical size | 100% | 20-75% |
| Transparency | Yes | Yes |
| Animation | APNG only | Yes |
| Support | Everything | All modern browsers and most apps |
Going the other way? WebP to PNG restores a PNG for any app.
Drop your PNG files into the box, keep quality 85 or pick Lossless, and press Convert to WebP.
Yes, in both lossy and lossless WebP. Soft edges and shadows stay smooth.
Lossless for logos, icons and screenshots; lossy (quality 80-90) for photos and illustrations.
No. Everything happens in your browser.
Safari shows WebP but cannot write it on web pages. Use Chrome, Edge or Firefox.
Lossless: about 25% smaller. Lossy: often 70-80% smaller for photos and artwork.
