Why compress a WebP image if it is already small?

Camera exports or high-resolution WebP graphics can still be several megabytes. Resizing the longest side and tuning quality trims them down for fast uploads.

Does this tool upload my WebP files?

No. Everything runs inside your browser using your device's processor, so your images never leave your device.

Can I compress other formats alongside WebP?

Yes. The tool supports JPG, PNG, WebP, and HEIC images in the same batch.
