Frequently asked questions

What is JPG?

JPG (JPEG) is the most widely supported photo format. It uses lossy compression to keep photos small, and it opens on virtually every device, browser and app.

What is WEBP?

WebP is a modern image format developed by Google. It produces smaller files than JPG and PNG at similar quality and supports transparency, but some older apps and editors cannot open it.

What's the difference between JPG and WEBP?

WEBP supports transparent backgrounds; JPG doesn't, so transparent areas are filled with a background color when converting. WEBP is newer and more efficient, but JPG opens on more devices and apps.

Is it safe to convert my files here?

Yes. The conversion runs inside your browser, so your files are never uploaded to a server. Close the tab and nothing remains.

Are there any limits?

It's free with no sign-up. Each file can be up to 100 MB, and you can convert up to 5 files at once.
