About converting PNG to WebP
Converting PNG to WebP re-encodes the image in the WebP format using your browser's canvas, so you can switch formats without extra software.
Everything happens on your device — nothing is uploaded. If WebP has no transparency, any transparent areas are filled with white, and FileTinker warns you first.
Convert PNG to WebP to shrink images noticeably for the web while keeping the alpha channel, so transparent logos, icons, and screenshots still sit cleanly on any background. WebP is encoded here at a high quality setting and loads faster than the equivalent PNG.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert PNG to WebP?
Drag your PNG image into the tool above and press Convert. FileTinker re-encodes it as WebP in your browser, then you download the result.
Will converting PNG to WebP reduce the quality?
Converting to WebP re-encodes the image. PNG is lossless, JPG and WebP use light compression to keep files small; FileTinker uses a high-quality setting so the difference is hard to see.
What happens to transparency when I convert to WebP?
JPG has no transparency, so any transparent areas are filled with white. PNG and WebP keep transparency intact.
Are my images uploaded anywhere?
No. Conversion happens entirely in your browser — your image never leaves your device and nothing is stored on a server.
Is WebP supported in all browsers?
WebP works in every modern browser, including current Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari. Very old browsers may not display it, so keep a PNG fallback if you must support legacy software.
