Why Convert HEIC to WebP?
WebP is the ideal web format for iPhone photos. It matches HEIC's compression efficiency while being supported by every modern browser. Converting HEIC to WebP gives you web-ready images that load fast and look great without the compatibility issues of HEIC.
WebP supports transparency and produces files 25–35% smaller than JPG at the same quality. If you are preparing iPhone photos for a website, blog, or social media, WebP is the smartest target format. All major browsers — Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge — display WebP natively.
LeanImg handles the conversion right in your browser. Your photos never leave your device — no upload to any server, no data collection, no account needed. The process is free, instant, and unlimited.
For maximum compatibility with older devices and software, consider HEIC to JPG instead. After converting, use our compressor for additional optimization. Need lossless quality? Try HEIC to PNG.
