How to convert JPG to WebP
- Drop one or more JPG files into the box above, or click to select them.
- WebP is already selected as the output format. Adjust the quality slider if you want smaller files.
- Click Download next to each converted file.
The conversion runs entirely in your browser. Your images are never uploaded to a server, so this is safe for personal photos and private documents.
Why convert JPG to WebP?
Convert JPG to WebP to make images load faster on a website or blog. WebP files are typically smaller than JPG at similar visual quality, which helps page speed, and all current major browsers display WebP.
Quality setting: WebP is lossy, so use the quality slider to trade file size against sharpness. 85–90% is a good default for photos.
JPG vs WebP
JPG (also written JPEG) is the most widely supported image format. It uses lossy compression, which keeps photos small by discarding detail the eye barely notices, but it has no transparency.
WebP is a format developed by Google that supports both lossy and lossless compression plus transparency. WebP images are typically smaller than equivalent JPG or PNG files, and all current major browsers support them, but some older software, editors, and upload forms still do not accept WebP.
