How to convert JPG to WebP
- Select Choose files, or drag your JPG files onto the box. You can also paste an image.
- Wait a moment. Each file converts on your device, and a progress bar shows the status.
- Select Download for a single file, or Download all (ZIP) when you convert several at once.
No account is needed, and there is no limit on how many files you convert.
Why convert JPG to WebP
WebP files are often 25 to 35 percent smaller than JPG at similar quality, which speeds up websites. Converting gives you a file that works in the place you need it. Because the conversion runs inside your browser, your files are never uploaded, so private photos and documents stay private. The conversion needs no server at all.
About the formats
JPG is a lossy format made for photographs. The output format is WebP. Your browser must be able to encode WebP. Chrome, Edge and Firefox can.
Metadata such as camera model and GPS location is dropped during conversion, because the image is redrawn and saved fresh. This is handy when you want to share a picture without revealing where it was taken.
Tips
- Convert many files at once. They run in parallel on phones and computers with several cores.
- Use the quality slider, when it is shown, to balance file size and sharpness. Around 90 percent suits most photos.
- Need a different format? Try png to webp or webp to jpg.
- Very large images need a lot of memory. If a file fails on your phone, try a computer or a smaller image.
