JPG to WebP

Convert JPG photos to WebP. At the same visible quality a WebP is typically 25-35% smaller than the JPEG, which is why it is now the default for images on the web.

    WebP at 80 looks about like a JPEG at 90. Start here and only raise it if you can see a difference at full size.
    Your photo is re-encoded, so this is a lossy step on top of the JPEG's own lossy compression. At 80 and above that is not visible in practice, but it is why converting back and forth repeatedly is a bad idea — always convert from the original.
    Camera metadata (EXIF) is not carried over, so the location and camera details in a phone photo are dropped. That is usually welcome for anything going on a website. The rotation stored in EXIF is applied first, so portrait photos stay upright.
    GD bundled (2.1.0 compatible). Runs in PHP with no external tools, so nothing needs installing. Lossless conversions keep every pixel exactly.

    Questions

    How much smaller will my files be?

    Usually 25-35% at the same visible quality, and sometimes more for large photographs. The result panel shows the actual saving for each file rather than a claim.

    Will the photo look worse?

    Not noticeably at quality 80 or above. Below about 60 you will start to see softening in fine detail and smooth gradients like skies.

    Why did my photo come out rotated correctly when other converters get it wrong?

    Because the EXIF orientation tag is applied before conversion. Phone cameras store the pixels unrotated and record which way up the photo goes in a tag; tools that ignore the tag produce sideways images.

    Is the EXIF data kept?

    No. Camera model, settings, timestamps and any GPS location are dropped. If you need them preserved, this is not the right tool.
