Why convert HEIC to WEBP?
HEIC photos from iPhones cannot be opened by most Windows apps, Android devices and websites. WebP makes images noticeably smaller than JPG or PNG at similar quality, so pages load faster.
What changes when you convert HEIC to WEBP
- File sizes are usually similar; the exact result depends on the quality setting.
- WEBP uses lossy compression. At the default quality (85) the difference is invisible for most images; raise it for maximum fidelity or lower it for smaller files.
- Transparency is preserved: WEBP supports an alpha channel.
- If your HEIC is animated, only the first frame is converted to WEBP.
- WEBP images can be at most 16,383 pixels wide or high; larger images are scaled down automatically.

Is converting HEIC to WEBP free?
Yes, completely free with no sign-up, no watermark and no daily limit.
Will I lose quality converting HEIC to WEBP?
WEBP is a lossy format, so a small amount of detail is traded for size. At quality 85–95 the difference is not visible for typical images. You can raise the quality in Settings.
Can I convert multiple HEIC files at once?
Yes. Drop as many files as you like; they are converted in parallel and can be downloaded individually or as a single ZIP.
Are my HEIC files uploaded?
No. The conversion runs locally in your browser, so your images never leave your device.
Does it work on iPhone and Android?
Yes. The converter works in current versions of Safari, Chrome, Firefox and Edge on phones, tablets and computers. Very large images may exceed the memory available to mobile browsers.
How do I stop my iPhone from taking HEIC photos?
