About PNG → WebP
Does WebP preserve PNG transparency?
Yes. WebP has full alpha-channel support and verto preserves it during the conversion. Logos, icons and screenshots with see-through areas look identical in the WebP output.
Lossless or lossy WebP?
WebP supports both, but the browser canvas encoder uses lossy compression with the quality slider you set. For UI assets where every pixel must be exact, stay at quality 100. For photo-like PNGs, 80–85 is usually indistinguishable from the original.
PNGs are large. Will this freeze my browser?
verto runs two conversions in parallel (one on mobile) so the UI stays responsive even on big batches. Files over 60 megapixels or larger than 20 MB are rejected up front to protect your device's memory.
