Frequently Asked Questions
What is WebP and why should I use it?
WebP is a modern image format developed by Google that provides superior compression. A WebP image is typically 25–34% smaller than a comparable JPEG or PNG while maintaining the same visual quality. Most modern browsers and CMSs support it.
What is AVIF and how does it compare to WebP?
AVIF (AV1 Image File Format) is an even newer format that can achieve 50% smaller file sizes compared to JPEG at equivalent quality. Browser support is still growing — Chrome, Firefox, and Safari 16+ support it, but older browsers do not.
Are my images uploaded to your server?
No. All conversion is performed using the HTML5 Canvas API directly in your browser. Your images never leave your device.
What input formats are supported?
You can convert JPG, JPEG, PNG, and WebP images. The tool loads each image onto a canvas and exports it in your chosen format.
Why is AVIF greyed out?
AVIF encoding requires a browser that supports it. If the option is disabled, your browser does not support AVIF output via the Canvas API. Try Chrome or Edge for full AVIF support.
Will conversion affect image resolution?
No. The canvas preserves the original pixel dimensions. Only the file format and compression are changed.
