The one conversion that doesn't cost you size

Turning a HEIC into a JPG makes the file noticeably bigger. Turning it into a WebP does not. That is the reason to pick this route for anything going online.

HEIC is economical because Apple built it to be — a phone holds thousands of photos and space matters. The usual escape route out of it, JPG, is an older way of compressing, so the same picture needs more room once you get there. You accept that when the priority is a file that opens on absolutely anything.

WebP compresses in the same league as HEIC while being something browsers actually render. So for a photo headed to a web page, a shop listing, or a site you look after, this is the conversion that solves the compatibility problem without handing back the efficiency you had.

When WebP is the wrong pick

When the photo is leaving the web. Browsers all read WebP; older desktop software sometimes still doesn't.

PICK WEBP

It is going on a page

A website, a shop listing, a blog post, anything a browser will display. This is what the format was built for, and it keeps your pages light — which is the whole reason anyone converts photos for the web in the first place.

PICK JPG INSTEAD

It is going to a person

Email, an upload form, a printer, or a colleague on unknown software. Converting to JPG costs you some size but removes every question about whether the other end can open it.

Questions people ask

Close to it. The two formats compress in much the same league, which is what makes this conversion different from turning a HEIC into a JPG — that one grows the file noticeably. Here you keep a small photo and gain one that browsers can actually display.

Because browsers won't render it. HEIC is a phone storage format rather than a web one, so a visitor gets a broken image instead of your photo. WebP is the opposite: made for the web, read by every current browser, and about as economical with space.

Yes. Every current browser displays WebP, and has done for years. The place it can still catch you out is older desktop software — a decade-old photo viewer or a legacy design tool may not open one — so keep JPG in mind for files that have to leave the web and land on someone's computer.

Little enough that you would have to go looking. Both formats compress by dropping detail the eye is least likely to miss, so this is a second pass rather than a first, and the quality slider is there if you would rather trade a little more size for a little more detail or the other way round.

No. The hidden details a phone attaches — device, date, and often the exact spot — are not carried into the WebP. That is usually what you want for a photo going on a public page, but it does mean the original HEIC is the only copy that still has them.

Yes. Drop in as many as you like and they queue together, then come back as a single .zip. Nothing is uploaded while it happens — the converting is done by your own device, which is why there is no cap on how many.
