About

What PNG to WebP does

Convert PNG images to WebP to make them far smaller for the web while keeping their transparency. The WebP is compressed at the quality you set, and each file shows the size it saved.

Everything happens on your own machine: the file is decoded, processed and re-encoded by your browser, and never leaves your device. There is no upload, no queue and no account.

Why this one

Why use PNG to WebP here

  • Transparency kept

    Transparent and see-through areas come across as they were, so logos and cut-outs still sit cleanly on any background.

  • Far smaller

    WebP stores the same picture in much less space than PNG, and each file shows its size before and after.

  • Quality for sharp edges

    Raise the quality for logos, text and screenshots, where compression shows first; lower it for photos.

  • Nothing is uploaded

    Your images are converted by your own browser and never leave your device.

How it works

How to use PNG to WebP

  1. Drop your PNG files onto the page, click to choose them, or paste one from the clipboard.

  2. WebP is already chosen. Raise the quality for logos and screenshots; lower it for photos.

  3. Each image converts as soon as it is added, and shows its size before and after.

  4. Download one image, or all of them as a ZIP.

Questions

Frequently asked

How do I convert PNG to WebP?

Drop the PNG files here. Each is converted to WebP straight away; download them one at a time or together as a ZIP. Nothing is uploaded.

Does WebP keep transparency?

Yes. Transparent and partly see-through areas come through as they were.

Is the WebP lossless?

No: it is compressed at the quality you set. At a high setting you will not see the difference; for an exact copy of every pixel, keep the PNG.

How much smaller will it be?

Usually a lot for photos and illustrations, less for simple graphics. Each file shows its real size before and after.

What quality should I use for logos and screenshots?

90 or more. Sharp edges and text are where compression shows first.

Does every browser support WebP?

Every current one does: Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari since version 14.

Are my images uploaded?

No. They are converted inside this page, on your device, and saved straight back to it. Nothing is sent to a server, so there is no copy anywhere else to delete.
