Why WebP?

WebP is Google's modern image format, designed specifically to shrink files for the web. At the same visual quality, WebP is typically 25–35% smaller than JPG and roughly 26% smaller than PNG. Faster page loads, lower hosting bandwidth, better Core Web Vitals scores. It's why every major website — YouTube, Facebook, eBay, Netflix — has moved to WebP.

If you're a blogger, web developer, e-commerce seller, or anyone publishing photos online, converting your iPhone HEIC photos straight to WebP saves significant bandwidth and makes your pages feel snappier.

HEIC to WebP without uploading

HEIC Quick runs every step locally in your browser via WebAssembly. Your photos never reach a server. You can drop 50 HEIC files, convert them all to WebP, download the results, and close the tab — nothing was ever transmitted anywhere.

Does WebP work everywhere?

Yes — as of 2020, every major browser supports WebP natively: Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari (14+ on macOS Big Sur and iOS 14+). Windows 10/11 File Explorer shows WebP thumbnails. Photoshop supports it since version 23.2. The "WebP isn't supported" era is over.

WebP quality settings

HEIC Quick lets you choose WebP quality from 1–100. For web publishing, 80–85 is the sweet spot — visually indistinguishable from the original for almost all photos, but with dramatically smaller files. Use 95–100 only if you need near-lossless quality.
