JPG to WebP Converter

This is one of the most popular conversions for website owners, because switching photos from JPG to WebP usually trims page weight and helps pages load faster. ImgControl converts JPG files to WebP directly in your browser, so there is nothing to install and no account to create.

JPG is best known for photographs, social media posts and email attachments: almost every phone, app, website and printer can open it, but it cannot store transparency and loses a little detail each time it is re-saved. WebP is better suited to website images that need to load quickly: it is usually smaller than JPG or PNG at similar visual quality and supports transparency, although some older desktop editors, print services and email clients still cannot open it.

How to convert JPG to WebP

Drop your JPG files onto the converter above or click to browse, optionally set a maximum output size, and press the convert button. Each WebP result appears below the converter and can be downloaded one by one or as a single ZIP file when you convert several images together.

What to expect from JPG to WebP conversion

WebP files are usually smaller than JPG files, so the converted image often takes less storage and loads faster.

JPG images do not use transparency, so the WebP result is a normal opaque image.

Both formats use lossy compression, so avoid converting the same image back and forth, which would slowly reduce quality.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does JPG to WebP conversion change the pixel dimensions?

No. The converted WebP keeps the width and height of the original JPG. The only exception is when you set a maximum output size and the file is still too large; the converter may then reduce dimensions to get closer to your target.

What happens to transparency when I convert JPG to WebP?

JPG images do not use transparency, so the WebP result is a normal opaque image.

When should I use WebP instead of JPG?

Choose WebP when you need an image for website images that need to load quickly. Stay with JPG when compatibility with photographs, social media posts and email attachments matters more than the benefits of WebP.

Are my JPG files uploaded to a server?

No. The conversion runs inside your browser on your own device, and ImgControl does not need your files to leave your computer or phone.

How many JPG files can I convert at once?

You can add up to 30 files in one batch. When you convert several images, you can download them individually or together in a ZIP archive.
