Why use WebP instead of PNG
PNG stores graphics losslessly, which is useful for editing but can produce large files. WebP supports transparency and efficient compression, making it a strong delivery format for screenshots, product images, and interface assets.
Use a high quality value for graphics with fine details. For logos or pixel art where every pixel must remain exact, keep the original PNG as the source and compare the converted result carefully.
Frequently asked questions
Will WebP keep PNG transparency?
Yes. WebP supports an alpha channel, so transparent areas remain transparent.
Why can a WebP sometimes be larger than the PNG?
Tiny, flat-color, or highly optimized PNG files may already compress very well. File size depends on image content and the selected WebP quality.
Is WebP supported by modern browsers?
Yes. Current major browsers support WebP. Keep a PNG fallback only when you must support older software outside modern browsers.
