When image optimization finishes, every visitor will automatically receive new images with significantly reduced file sizes. As of today, over 95% of users use browsers that support the WebP format. The loading time of your website depends to a large extent on its weight and the level of image optimization.

AVIF support Now in the PRO version you can use AVIF as the output format for your images. The AVIF format is a new extension — is the successor to WebP. Images converted to the AVIF format weigh about 50% less than images converted only to the WebP format, while maintaining better image quality. Enjoy peace of mind knowing that AVIF is supported by over 90% of browsers. And if any visitor has an older browser, our plugin will automatically fall back to WebP — so every user gets fast, high-quality images without a hitch. Unlock the magic of AVIF in our PRO version — upgrade today for unparalleled image performance. How does this work? When a browser tries to load an image file, the plugin checks if it supports the AVIF format (if enabled in the plugin settings). If so, the browser will receive the equivalent of the original image in the AVIF format. If it does not support AVIF, but supports the WebP format, the browser will receive the equivalent of the original image in WebP format. In case the browser does not support either WebP or AVIF, the original image is loaded. This means full support for all browsers. A guide on how to test whether the plugin is working properly can be found here. Additional information If you have just installed the plugin, you can optimize images with one click. Image size will be smaller after generate AVIF and WebP! New images that will be added to the Media Library will be converted automatically.
