How to convert PNG to WebP

  1. Add your PNG files by dragging them in or choosing them.
  2. Check that the output says WebP, then click Convert.
  3. Download the WebP files, or all of them as a ZIP.

What changes when a PNG becomes a WebP

Does your browser support it?

Your browser creates the WebP file, so the WebP option only appears when it can. If WebP is missing from the output menu, the converter falls back to JPG, and Pixformat tells you if a file can't be created. Chrome can create WebP. Support in other browsers depends on the version, so check yours: if the option is there, it works.

PNG to WebP: common questions

Should I use WebP for my website images?

It is a good fit for photos and graphics that are shown in a browser. Keep PNG for files that go into tools or services that don't read WebP.

Is the WebP lossless?

No. It is saved as lossy WebP at about 82%, which is why it can be smaller than the PNG.

Why does the converter stay on JPG?

Because your browser can't create WebP files. Try another browser or version.

Can I go back to PNG?

Yes, with the WebP to PNG converter. Detail lost in the lossy WebP does not come back.
