Format comparison
WebP is a web-focused image format that often achieves smaller files while keeping good visual quality.
Pros
- ✓ Often smaller for web delivery
- ✓ Transparency support (useful for UI assets)
- ✓ Broad browser support
Cons
- ✗ Some older browsers unsupported
- ✗ Limited editing software support
JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) is the most widely used image format, ideal for photographs and images with gradients.
Pros
- ✓ Universal compatibility
- ✓ Adjustable compression
- ✓ Great for photos
Cons
- ✗ Lossy compression degrades quality
- ✗ No transparency support
When to Convert WebP to JPEG
Convert WebP to JPEG when you need maximum compatibility with older apps or upload targets. Best when transparency isn’t required.
Technical Format Details
WebP Technical Specifications
Technical details
WebP is a web-focused image format that supports both lossy and lossless modes, and it can store transparency.
Good for
- Web delivery: Balancing file size and visual quality- Transparent assets: Often lighter than PNG in many cases
Notes
- Editing: Support varies across software- Compatibility: Some older environments may not support WebP

JPEG Technical Specifications
Technical details
JPEG is a lossy format optimized for photos. Lower quality settings reduce file size, but can introduce artifacts around edges and text.
Good for
- Photos: Natural images with gradients- Sharing: Maximum compatibility
Notes
- Re-encoding: Repeated saves accumulate artifacts (use PNG for editing intermediates)- Transparency: Not supported

How to Use
Add files
Drop or click to select your WebP files (multiple supported)
Confirm output
Default is JPEG. You can change to another supported output format if needed.
Adjust options
Set quality, resize, and metadata options only if you need them.
Convert & download
Download each file, or download everything as a ZIP for batch outputs.
FAQ
What happens to transparent WebP when converting to JPEG?
JPEG doesn't support transparency, so transparent areas are flattened to a white background.
When is keeping WebP not an option?
Some social media upload forms, email attachment previews, and older direct-print services only accept JPEG.
What quality setting works best?
For photo sharing, 85–90 is a good balance. For email attachments, 75–80 keeps files manageable.
Can I keep Exif metadata?
When "Keep Exif/Metadata" is ON, we try to carry over things like capture time, camera info, and GPS where possible. Some tags may be dropped depending on the input, output format, and browser environment. Turn it OFF if you want to remove location data before sharing.
Can I convert multiple files at once?
Yes. You can select multiple files, convert them in one run, and download each file individually. For multiple outputs, you can also download everything as a ZIP. For very large batches, splitting into smaller runs is more stable.
Are my images uploaded to a server?
No. Conversion runs locally in your browser, and your images are not sent to an external server.
What if conversion fails or is slow?
Some formats (like HEIC/HEIF) depend on browser support. If it fails, try another browser, reduce the number of files, or resize before converting.
Why do colors sometimes shift after conversion?
Differences in decoding/encoding and color handling can cause small shifts. For critical images, compare the output against the original.
