HEIC vs WEBP
HEIC and WebP both offer strong compression, but WebP has broader browser support. WebP is often the better choice for web optimization.
Compression Presets
Presets automatically adjust compression and image size depending on how the image will be used.
| Preset | Compression | Max Dimensions | Typical File Size | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Web | Medium | 1920px | 200KB – 800KB | Websites, blogs, landing pages |
| Social | Medium-High | 1200px | 100KB – 400KB | Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn |
| High | 1200px | 50KB – 200KB | Email attachments and quick sharing | |
| Low (Highest Quality) | No resize | 1MB+ | Printing photos or marketing materials |
Actual file size depends on the original image resolution and format.
Common pitfalls
- WebP is usually smaller, but some older apps may not support it.
- HEIC conversion requires a local decoder (Phase 2). If it fails today, HEIC support is coming soon.
