How to Convert Image to WebP
Converting images to WebP on fbutube takes seconds — and it all happens on your device. Nothing is ever uploaded to a server, so your source files never leave your browser.
- Upload your image. Click the select box above, or drag & drop a file directly onto it. JPG, PNG, GIF, TIFF, BMP, and WebP input files are all accepted.
- Adjust output quality (optional). Default 80% hits the sweet spot. Bump to 90–100% for near-lossless, or drop to 60–75% for maximum size savings on the web.
- Click Convert to WebP. Your browser encodes the image locally via the HTML5 Canvas API. No server round-trip, no file upload.
- Download your WebP image. Review the original vs WebP size comparison, then click download. The file saves immediately with a
.webpextension.
After converting, you can also compress or resize the originals before converting for even more dramatic savings.
WebP vs JPG vs PNG — Format Comparison

Bottom line: WebP is usually the best default choice for new content on modern websites because it is the smallest format while matching the visual quality of either JPG or PNG. Pair WebP with a JPG/PNG fallback for the tiny fraction of legacy browsers, or convert back using one of our other tools if compatibility issues arise.
