From iPhone camera roll to the web
HEIC is efficient on the phone; WebP is efficient on the page. Shipping raw HEIC to a public website still fails for many visitors and CDNs. Converting once to WebP gives you a format every modern browser can display, usually at a smaller size than an equivalent JPG.
Use a high quality value for hero photos and product shots. For thumbnails and background images you can lower quality to save bandwidth. Keep the original HEIC if you may need a full-resolution archive later.
Frequently asked questions
Should I use WebP or JPG for HEIC photos on a website?
WebP usually wins on size for the same visual quality in current browsers. Choose JPG when a CMS, email client, or partner system still rejects WebP.
Does WebP support transparency from HEIC?
Typical iPhone stills are opaque. If the source has an alpha channel, WebP can keep it; camera photos almost never need that.
Why is the first conversion slower?
The HEIC decoder loads only when you start converting. Later files in the same session reuse that decoder.
