Frequently asked questions
Is this HEIC to WebP converter free and private?
Yes. The conversion runs inside your browser, so your HEIC files are never uploaded to a server. Our server only records that one image was converted, along with your network address, so that the daily limit shown above the converter can be applied.
Will I lose quality converting HEIC to WebP?
Both formats are lossy, so each conversion re-compresses the picture and a very small loss is possible. Keep the quality slider high (90% or more) if you want the result to look the same as the original. Always keep your original HEIC file.
Is transparency kept?
Yes. Transparent areas stay transparent in the WebP file.
Is the photo's location and other metadata kept?
No. The converter writes a fresh WebP file with only the picture, so GPS location, camera details and dates stored inside the original are not copied. If you want a WebP with the original metadata, use a desktop editor instead.
Can I convert to HEIC as well?
Not here. Browsers cannot create HEIC files reliably, so this site only converts from HEIC. JPG is the most compatible choice for sharing.
