Why images save as WEBP, and why PNG helps
Websites serve WEBP because it loads faster than JPG or PNG, so that is what you get when you save a picture from a browser. Older image editors, some Office versions and many upload forms still do not accept it.
PNG opens in practically every program. Because PNG is lossless, converting loses nothing further, although it cannot bring back detail that the WEBP compression already removed. For photos where size matters more than a transparent background, WEBP to JPG gives a much smaller file.
Questions
Will the transparent background be kept?
Yes. PNG supports transparency, and Flecto keeps it.
Why is the PNG so much bigger than the WEBP?
PNG stores every pixel without lossy compression. That is good for editing and bad for file size. Choose JPG when you need a small file.
Is my file uploaded?
No. The conversion runs on your PC, and the file never leaves it.
Can I convert several files at once?
Yes. Select them together, then use the same Shift and right-click menu. The dial offers the formats they can all use.
