Why Convert HEIC to WebP?
WebP delivers exceptional compression for web images, often achieving smaller file sizes than HEIC while maintaining visual fidelity. This leads to faster page loads and reduced bandwidth usage—critical for performance‑focused web projects.
Unlike HEIC, WebP is natively supported by all modern browsers and can include alpha transparency, making it ideal for responsive design elements, overlays, and logos without additional plugins.
By converting HEIC photos to WebP, you combine the benefits of modern compression with universal web compatibility, ensuring your images look great and load quickly across all devices.
