    About this converter

    BMP is an uncompressed Windows bitmap format producing very large files, still common in legacy software. WebP is Google's format offering roughly 25-35% smaller files than JPG at comparable quality, with transparency and animation support.

    BMP files are uncompressed, which is why they are enormous — a photograph can run to tens of megabytes. Converting BMP to WebP usually happens because something old produced the file and everything modern is choking on its size.

    Frequently asked questions

    Will converting to WebP reduce the image quality?

    A little, in exchange for a much smaller file. The conversion runs at a high setting where most people cannot tell it apart from the original. If it is the file size you care about, Compress Images lets you name the size you want.

    Is WebP supported everywhere?

    Every current web browser reads WebP, as do Windows, macOS and recent Android. Older software and some phone photo apps still refuse it.

    Do my BMP files get sent anywhere?

    No. Everything happens on your own device, so your pictures never leave it.
