Real privacy: your images never leave your device.

JPEG is everywhere; WebP makes it lighter

Cameras, phones, and Lightroom or social exports usually deliver JPG. It is universal, but on landing pages and product grids every hundred KB counts. Re-encoding to WebP at a sensible quality often cuts weight while looking close to the original.

SMALLIMG is not a RAW workflow replacement—it is the fast tool when you already have a final JPG and need a web version. Client-side processing means internal catalogs or photos of people never travel to an unknown converter.

Which quality to pick

For general photography, 80–88 is a solid start. Soft portraits tolerate a bit more compression; flat skies and gradients may band if you go too low. Compare original and result sizes in the list before downloading.

If the JPG was already crushed by WhatsApp or another app, do not expect miracles—lost detail does not come back. You can still avoid another harsh generation: use high quality or only limit width.

Batches for blogs and ecommerce

Upload several article photos, convert, and download. Pair with max width to align heroes and thumbnails. Privacy still applies: processing never leaves your device.

When maximum compatibility matters (old email clients, kiosks), switch output to JPG. This page prioritizes WebP for “jpg to webp” search intent, but the engine supports all three Tier-1 formats.

Frequently asked questions

Are JPG and JPEG the same?

Yes in practice. The extension may be .jpg or .jpeg; the format is JPEG.

How much smaller is WebP than JPG?

It depends on the image and quality. Many web photos see clear savings; some see less. The list shows before/after in KB.

Can I limit pixel size?

Yes. Set a max width in pixels to resize proportionally before encoding.

Is EXIF metadata kept?

Re-encoding with canvas in the browser typically strips common metadata—useful when you want a clean copy to publish.
