PNG to WebP
Convert PNG images to smaller WebP files in your browser — files never leave your device.
Lower values = smaller file, more compression. 85 is a good default.
About the PNG to WebP
PNG files are lossless but heavy, which slows down web pages. Converting PNG to WebP typically cuts file size by 25–35% at the same visual quality while keeping the transparent background intact. Handytool does the conversion entirely in your browser, so your images are never uploaded — perfect for optimizing site assets before you ship them.
PNG to WebP features
- 01
Smaller files for the web
WebP compresses better than PNG, commonly shaving 25–35% off the file size. Lighter images mean faster page loads and better Core Web Vitals scores.
- 02
Transparency preserved
WebP supports an alpha channel just like PNG, so transparent logos and graphics keep their transparency after conversion.
- 03
Quality control
Use the quality slider to pick lossy WebP for maximum savings or a high setting for near-lossless output — you decide the size-versus-fidelity trade-off.

- Drop your .png files onto the upload area (or click Choose files), set the quality slider, then click Convert. Download the resulting WebP images individually or all at once.
