Larger files, low-powered devices, or a failed local attempt fall back to server processing, in which case the file is uploaded temporarily and removed by an automated cleanup job.

FAQs for JPG to WEBP
Common answers so you can keep moving.
What is the difference between JPG and WebP?
JPG (JPEG) is a lossy photo format that discards fine detail to keep files small. It has no transparency and no animation. WebP is a modern web image format that can be lossy or lossless and supports transparency and animation, usually at smaller sizes than JPG or PNG.
Will converting JPG to WebP change quality?
Some change is possible because JPG and WebP store data differently. Keep the original file until you have checked the result.
Is my JPG file uploaded to a server?
For smaller files this conversion can run inside your browser, so the file is not uploaded (about 50 MB or less on desktop and 20 MB or less on mobile). Larger files, low-powered devices, or a failed local attempt fall back to server processing, in which case the file is uploaded temporarily and removed by an automated cleanup job. See the Privacy Policy for details.
Can I control the output quality?
Where a quality control is shown on the page you can lower it for smaller files or raise it for better detail. Browser conversions default to a high quality setting; server conversions use format-specific defaults.
My JPG file will not convert
Make sure the file really is JPG (renaming an extension does not change the format) and that it opens correctly on your device. Password-protected or corrupted files are rejected. If the file is very large, try again with a smaller one.
The output does not look right
Open the original and the result side by side; differences usually come from features WebP stores differently.
The conversion switched to server processing
Files above the local size limit, or devices with limited resources, are handled on the server automatically. This is expected and the result is the same format.
