Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert images to WebP format?
Simply upload your JPG, PNG, or GIF image by clicking the upload area or dragging and dropping it. Choose your quality settings and select lossless or lossy compression, then click "Convert to WebP". Your optimized WebP image will be ready to download instantly.
What is the difference between lossless and lossy WebP compression?
Lossless compression preserves the original image quality exactly, resulting in larger file sizes but perfect image fidelity. Lossy compression reduces file size significantly by removing some image data, with quality controlled by the quality slider (0-100%). For most web use, lossy compression at 80-90% quality offers excellent results.
What quality setting should I use for WebP conversion?
For web images, 80% quality is recommended as it provides a good balance between file size and visual quality. Use 90-95% for high-quality images where detail is important. For maximum compression, 60-70% works well for thumbnails and backgrounds. The tool shows real-time file size comparison to help you decide.
Does WebP support transparency like PNG?
Yes! WebP supports transparency (alpha channel) just like PNG, but typically with much smaller file sizes. When you convert PNG images with transparency to WebP, the transparency is fully preserved in both lossless and lossy modes.
How much smaller are WebP files compared to JPG or PNG?
WebP typically provides 25-35% better compression than JPG and 25-50% better than PNG, depending on the image content and quality settings. Our tool shows the exact file size reduction percentage after conversion so you can see the space savings.
