<h4>Convert to next-gen formats like AVIF and WebP</h4>
<p>With the TinyPNG WordPress plugin, you can easily convert your images to next-gen formats like AVIF and WebP. AVIF and WebP are modern image formats designed for the web. They are often smaller in size than older formats like JPEG and PNG, while keeping excellent image quality.</p>
<ul>
<li>WebP images are 25–34% smaller than JPEG (lossy) according to Google.</li>
<li>AVIF can reduce image size by up to 50% compared to JPEG, often even beating WebP in compression.</li>
</ul>
<p>Google’s PageSpeed Insights and other tools strongly recommend serving images in AVIF or WebP. Most modern browsers (like Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari) now fully support WebP and AVIF. That means you can safely serve these formats to most of your visitors.</p>
<p>With the TinyPNG WordPress plugin, your images can be automatically converted to AVIF or WebP when you upload them. No extra steps are required.</p>
<h4>Optimizing all your images</h4>
<p>You can bulk optimize your existing JPEG, PNG, and WebP images all at once by going to Media > Bulk TinyPNG. Clicking on the big button will start compressing and converting, when needed, all unoptimized images in your media library.</p>
<p>If you have more images than your free credits allow, the tool will show you an estimated cost to optimize your entire library. If you are interested, you can upgrade your account to the paid plan and optimize the full library all in one go. Prefer to stay on the free plan? No problem! The bulk optimization tool will simply process images until your free limit is reached.</p>
<h4>Compress for performance</h4>
<p>The Tinify optimization engine is more than just compression. It is built to deliver the best image performance for the web, without sacrificing visual quality. Here’s how it helps:</p>
<ul>
<li>Display JPEG images more quickly with progressive JPEG encoding.</li>
<li>Color profiles are automatically translated to standard RGB color.</li>
<li>Convert CMYK to RGB to save more space and add compatibility.</li>
</ul>

TinyPNG – JPEG, PNG & WebP image compression

Great plugin allows you to speedup website using API from tinypng. Really useful, I don't have to minimize every image before uploading it to server.

Awesome


Original file size: 166kb



Tinypng compressed: 91kb



But it did not display the compressed image directly on the webpage






The file size after uploading has not been updated


Great plugin! Works as intended and hasn't failed me once in all these years! 


Great plugin


As a professional web developer, I found TinyPNG to be useful. I have recommended it to several customers who keep using it ever since. Fair use: for small blogs, the free version is fully functional, but limited to a certain number of images processed per month.


Useful image optimizer
