Common Questions

What is WEBP?
WEBP is a modern image format developed by Google that provides superior lossy and lossless compression. It produces files 25–35% smaller than equivalent JPG/PNG files at the same quality.
Why convert from WEBP?
Despite strong browser support, WEBP isn't universally supported in older apps, email clients and printing services. Converting ensures maximum compatibility.
Does converting WEBP to JPG lose quality?
Yes — both WEBP and JPG are lossy formats. Converting from one to the other involves an additional compression step. For best results, use the original source file whenever possible.
Should I convert to JPG or PNG?
Convert to JPG for photographs (smaller files). Convert to PNG for graphics, logos or images with transparency (lossless quality).

Pro Tip

Did You Know?

2010
Google Launched WebP
WebP was developed by Google and launched in 2010. Google acquired the technology from On2 Technologies (VP8 video codec). It was designed specifically to make web images smaller without reducing quality.
25–34%
WebP Smaller Than JPG
Google's research shows WebP images are 25–34% smaller than equivalent JPG images at the same visual quality. For PNG comparison: WebP is 26% smaller. This bandwidth saving at Google's scale means serving billions of images per day.
2022
WebP Universal Browser Support
WebP achieved universal browser support in 2022 when Internet Explorer was officially retired. All major browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge) now support WebP natively — removing the main barrier to adoption.

You May Also Ask

Why does WebP look different from JPG after conversion?
You shouldn't notice a visible difference at 90%+ quality. If you do, it may be because: the WebP uses lossless compression (converting to lossy JPG will look different), or you're comparing the two files at different zoom levels. WebP can be either lossy or lossless — check which your file uses. Our tool handles both.
Should I use WebP or JPG on my website?
Use WebP for modern websites — 25–34% smaller files = faster page loads = better SEO and user experience. Serve JPG as a fallback using the HTML element with srcset. Most CMS platforms (WordPress, Shopify) now handle this automatically. If you're managing images manually, WebP is the better choice for any browser-viewed image.
Can I edit WebP files in Photoshop?
Adobe added native WebP support in Photoshop 23.2 (2022). Earlier versions require a free plugin (WebPShop by Google). GIMP has supported WebP natively since 2.10 (2018). Most modern image editors now support WebP, but older software may not — hence the value of conversion tools.

Common Mistakes

Using WebP for print production
Print workflows use CMYK colour space and require TIFF, PDF or EPS formats. WebP is purely a screen format.
Convert WebP to TIFF or PNG before sending to printers. Never use WebP in print workflows.
Assuming all WebP files are the same
WebP can be lossy (like JPG) or lossless (like PNG). A lossless WebP converted to lossy JPG will look different. Our converter handles this by using a white background fill.
Check your WebP's encoding type if unexpected quality changes occur.
Not providing JPG fallbacks for older systems
While browser support is near-universal, email clients, some apps and older devices still don't support WebP.
Keep both WebP (for web) and JPG (for email/sharing) versions of important images.
