About the WebP format

WebP is a modern image format developed by Google. It supports lossy and lossless compression, transparency and animation, and every major browser can display it.

Older desktop apps and some upload forms still reject WebP, which is why WebP to JPG is so popular. For even smaller files, look at the AVIF converters, and fix the dimensions first with the Image Resizer.

Use WebP to JPG for photos and the widest compatibility. If the image has a transparent background, use WebP to PNG so the transparency is kept.

Yes. Animated WebP is often 50-80% smaller than the same GIF. Convert with GIF to WebP or GIF to Animated WebP, and back with WebP to GIF.

AVIF compresses even better, often 20-30% smaller than WebP, but encoding is slower and older devices may not show it. Test both with WebP to AVIF and AVIF to WebP.
