What happens to transparency?

JPG cannot store see through areas, so transparent parts are filled with a solid color. If your WebP is a logo or a cut out, choose PNG to keep the transparency.

Converting the other way? WebP is a great choice for your own website images.

Animated WebP files convert to a still image of the first frame.
