What happens to your data

Kept

  • Both lossy and lossless WebP files are supported
  • One .ico file with six sizes inside: 16, 32, 48, 64, 128 and 256 pixels, as Windows and browsers expect
  • Transparency is kept

Good to know

  • For an animated WebP only the first frame is used.
  • Icons are square. A picture that is not square is fitted inside the square with transparent padding, not cropped.

WEBP vs ICO

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.

Used in: Modern websites · Faster page loads · Automatic image optimization

ICO

An ICO file bundles one or more small icon images into a single file, traditionally used for Windows application and file-type icons. It's still the required format for website favicons today.

Used in: Website favicons · Windows app icons · Desktop shortcuts
