Why convert PNG to WebP?

You may hit attachment limits on messengers and email, slow down your website, or run into older software that can't open PNG. Converting to WebP fixes both compatibility and efficiency. IMGLOO processes PNG β†’ WebP entirely inside your browser and never uploads your files.

What to know about PNG β†’ WebP

WebP offers the smallest file size and supports both lossless and lossy modes, but some older messengers, email clients, and legacy software may fail to open it. When compatibility is the priority, JPG or PNG is safer.

EXIF metadata (capture time, GPS location, camera info) is typically preserved in the output unless you explicitly strip it. For photos containing sensitive data, run them through a metadata-removal tool as an extra step.
