Why convert JPG to WebP?

WebP often delivers similar visual quality at a smaller size than JPG. That makes it useful for blog images, product photos, thumbnails, and other web pages with many images.

Keep a compatibility copy

WebP support is strong in modern browsers, but older tools may still prefer JPG. Keep the original when you need maximum compatibility outside the web.

Limitations to know

  • WebP export depends on browser Canvas support.
  • The current converter creates still-image output, not animated WebP.
