Converting HEIC to WebP lets you take advantage of WebP's 25-35% smaller than jpeg with comparable perceived quality. HEIC files (High Efficiency Image Container) can be converted to WebP (Web Picture Format) for better compatibility, smaller file sizes, or access to features that HEIC does not support.
HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container, introduced in 2015) uses HEVC (H.265) intra-frame compression. WebP (Web Picture Format, introduced in 2010) uses VP8 (lossy) / VP8L (lossless) compression. HEIC browser support: Limited (Safari only on macOS/iOS). WebP browser support: All modern browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari 14+, Edge).
The quality impact depends on the specific settings used during conversion. WebP preserves full quality with lossless compression.
Typical HEIC file size: A 12MP iPhone photo: ~1.5-2.5 MB. Typical WebP file size: A 12MP photo at quality 80: ~2-3.5 MB.
Use the HTML <picture> element to serve WebP with a HEIC fallback for the rare browsers that do not support WebP yet. This gives you the best of both worlds: modern compression for most users and guaranteed compatibility for everyone.
