Output format: webp

WebP is the format to reach for when an iPhone photo has to go on a website: it holds detail close to HEIC at a fraction of the bytes a JPG would need, and every current browser renders it. The HEIC is decoded and re-encoded here at a quality setting tuned for photographs. No copy of the picture is sent anywhere, because the work is done by this tab.

Frequently asked questions

Is WebP really better than JPG for the same photo?
For matching visual quality a WebP typically lands 25 to 35 percent below a JPG. Across a gallery of a dozen photographs that is the difference between a fast page and a slow one.
Can I print or email the result?
Mail clients and print shops are the two places WebP still trips over. Pick JPG as the target instead when the file is going to a printer or into an attachment rather than onto a web page.
Does the photo keep its camera and location data?
It does not. The EXIF block, GPS coordinates included, is dropped during the re-encode, which is usually welcome for an image about to be published.
