How it works

1

Upload

Drop your PNG image into the box above — or click to browse. It is read locally; nothing is uploaded.

2

Convert

WebP is pre-selected as the output format. Adjust the quality slider if shown, then hit Convert & download.

3

Download

Save your new WebP file with the correct extension. Repeat for as many images as you like — no limits.

The best of both worlds

PNG to WebP is the rare conversion with no real downside for web use. You keep what makes PNG great — lossless-ish quality and full transparency — while getting files up to 80% smaller thanks to WebP's modern codec.

Logos, UI graphics, screenshots with transparency and illustrations all thrive as WebP. It is the single most impactful image optimization most websites have not done yet — and it takes one click per file.

Tips

  • Transparency is fully preserved. Unlike JPG conversion, WebP keeps the alpha channel — transparent PNGs stay transparent.
  • Expect dramatic savings. PNGs routinely shrink 60–80% as WebP with no visible change — the biggest win of any conversion on this site.
  • Quality slider matters less here. WebP handles graphics beautifully even at 80–85%; reserve 90%+ for photographic PNGs.
  • Still need PNG somewhere? Keep the originals — a few legacy systems and print workflows still want PNG.

Frequently asked questions

Will my transparent PNG stay transparent as WebP?

Yes — WebP supports full alpha transparency, and this conversion preserves it perfectly. That is the key advantage over converting to JPG.

How much smaller will the WebP be?

Typically 60–80% smaller than the PNG with no visible difference — the largest savings of any format conversion, because PNG is so inefficient for complex images.

Is WebP good for logos?

Excellent — provided they are displayed on the web in modern browsers. Crisp edges, full transparency, tiny files. For print or legacy software, keep a PNG master.

What quality setting should I use?

85–90% is ideal for most graphics. WebP is very efficient, so even 80% looks great for illustrations and UI elements.

Do all browsers support WebP now?

All modern ones do — Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari 14+. For the small slice of legacy traffic, sites typically serve a JPG/PNG fallback.
