How to convert PNG to WebP

  1. Add your PNG photos. Drop them on the box above, or pick them from your device. You can add up to 300 files in one batch, each up to 50 MB.
  2. Check that the Format is set to WebP and set the Quality if you want. WipePic has already chosen WebP for you on this page.
  3. Download the WebP files. One file is saved as it is, and several files are saved as a ZIP.

Why convert PNG to WebP?

You want smaller images for a website. WebP is often much smaller than PNG, and it keeps transparency.

What to know about this conversion

  • The WebP is lossy and has a Quality slider that starts at 85. Lower values give smaller files. Transparency stays.
  • WipePic encodes the file with your browser. If your browser cannot encode WebP, the tool keeps the original format.
  • The Quality slider goes from low to high and starts at 85. A higher value keeps more detail and makes a larger file.
  • The converted photo is turned upright using its Orientation tag, and the new file has the extension .webp.
  • When the colors of a photo cannot be kept in the new file, WipePic converts them to sRGB and shows a note on the file.

Your photos stay on your device

The conversion runs in your browser. WipePic does not upload your photos, does not need an account and has no usage quota. Each converted file is also cleaned of its hidden metadata, so you can share it right away.

Questions

Does PNG to WebP keep transparency?

Yes. WebP supports transparent pixels, and they stay transparent in the new file.

How much smaller will the WebP be?

It depends on the picture. Photos shrink a lot. Simple graphics can shrink less. Compare the size on the result and move the Quality slider if you want another balance.

Do all programs open WebP?

All current browsers do, and most modern programs. Older programs may not. Convert to PNG or JPG if you need the widest support.

Does the PNG to WebP conversion remove metadata?

Yes. WipePic removes the hidden metadata, such as the GPS location, the camera model and the capture time, and then converts the picture. The new WebP file is cleaned once more, so it carries none of it.
