Format comparison

Source

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
Target

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 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

1

Add files

Drop or click to select your WebP files (multiple supported)

2

Confirm output

Default is JPEG. You can change to another supported output format if needed.

3

Adjust options

Set quality, resize, and metadata options only if you need them.

4

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.
