FAQ

Does this upload my files?
No. Everything runs locally in your browser. Your files never leave your device.

Can I use it offline?
Yes. After the page loads, disconnect from the internet and convert as normal.

Does WebP keep transparency?
Yes. WebP supports transparency, so it is a great choice for icons and graphics that need an alpha channel.

Why convert PNG to WebP?
WebP is built for the web and often reduces file size at similar visual quality. Smaller images usually load faster.

What if something cannot open WebP?
Convert it to JPG for compatibility or PNG for lossless edits.
