Frequently Asked Questions

WebP is a modern image format developed by Google in 2010. It uses both lossy and lossless compression techniques derived from the VP8 video codec. WebP typically produces files 25-34% smaller than JPEG while maintaining similar quality, and supports features like transparency and animation.

Lossy WebP (VP8) achieves smaller file sizes by discarding some image data - best for photographs. Lossless WebP (VP8L) preserves all image data perfectly - ideal for graphics, logos, and images requiring exact pixel accuracy. This viewer detects and displays which type your file uses.

Yes! Animated WebP files are similar to GIFs but typically much smaller in file size. They can contain multiple frames with timing information. This viewer detects animated WebP files and displays animation details including frame count and loop information.

Yes, your files are completely secure. All file processing happens locally in your browser using JavaScript. Your WebP files are never uploaded to any server, ensuring complete privacy for your images.

The viewer can handle WebP files up to 50MB. Due to WebP's excellent compression, most images are much smaller than this. Very large files or animated WebP files with many frames may take longer to process depending on your device.

Yes! Use our WebP to JPG converter to convert your WebP files to widely-compatible JPEG format, or WebP to PNG if you need to preserve transparency. We also offer WebP compression to reduce file sizes further.
