JPEG vs WebP
| JPEG | WebP | |
|---|---|---|
| Full name | JPEG | WebP |
| Compression | Lossy | Lossy |
| Transparency | No | Yes |
| Best for | Photographs | Photographs and web delivery |
What changes in this conversion
- Two generations of lossy compression. Re-encoding compounds artefacts. Convert from the original whenever you have it.
- Metadata is dropped. EXIF data — including GPS coordinates, camera model and timestamps — does not survive the canvas. That is a useful privacy side effect before sharing photos.
About JPEG
JPEG and JPG are the same format — the three-letter extension is a leftover from MS-DOS filename limits. Either extension opens identically everywhere.
About WebP
WebP is Google’s modern format supporting both lossy and lossless modes plus transparency and animation. It is typically 25–35% smaller than JPEG at matching quality and is supported by every current browser.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert JPEG to WebP?
Drop the file on the converter above, adjust the quality or size if you want, and download the result. No account, no email, no upload.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. The file is read with the browser's FileReader API, drawn to a canvas and re-encoded locally. You can disconnect from the network after the page loads and the converter still works.
Is there a file size limit?
Only your device's memory. There is no server-side cap, no queue and no daily limit. Very large images — beyond roughly 50 megapixels — may fail on mobile browsers, which limit canvas dimensions.
Will the quality drop?
WebP is lossy, so some detail is discarded. At quality 85 the difference is invisible at normal viewing size; below about 60 it becomes noticeable in flat areas and around sharp edges.
Can I convert several files at once?
Yes. Drop as many as you like and use "Download all". Each file is converted independently in your browser.
Is there a watermark?
No. The output is exactly the converted image, nothing added.
