Convert image to WebP
To convert an image to WebP, pick the file and press Convert to WebP. Transparency is kept, but Safari, iPhone and iPad cannot save WebP from a canvas, so the tool shows a clear message on those browsers instead of a file.

Questions
How do I convert a JPG or PNG to WebP?
Pick the image on this page and press Convert to WebP. Your browser makes the WebP file, and you download it when it is ready.
Does WebP keep transparent backgrounds?
Yes. Transparent areas stay transparent in the WebP, which a JPG cannot do.
Why does the tool not work on my iPhone?
Safari cannot save WebP from a canvas, which is how the tool makes the file. On Safari, iPhone and iPad the tool shows a message instead of a download. Chrome, Edge or Firefox can make the file.
Should I convert my images to WebP?
Check where the file is going first. Some older apps and upload forms only accept JPG or PNG.
