02 / what you get

What happens to your data

Kept

  • The iPhone rotation is applied, so the photo comes out the right way up
  • The main photo is converted at full resolution
  • Saved as WebP at quality 80, usually much smaller than JPG or PNG at the same look
  • Transparency is kept

Good to know

  • Only the still photo is converted. The short video of a Live Photo is not included.
  • Very old software and some printers cannot open WebP. Use JPG or PNG there.
  • Both formats are lossy, so every conversion costs a little quality. Keep your original file.
  • Metadata such as EXIF and the GPS location is not copied into the new file.

HEIC vs WEBP

HEIC

A HEIC file is the photo format iPhones and newer iPads use by default (also called HEIF). It keeps photo quality at about half the size of a JPG, but many Windows apps, websites and email services can't open it — which is why people convert it to JPG or PNG.

Used in: iPhone & iPad photos · Apple Photos exports · Live Photos

WEBP

A WebP file is a modern image format from Google that compresses smaller than JPG or PNG at the same quality, while supporting both lossy and lossless modes plus transparency. It's now the format most websites serve automatically to speed up page loads.
