+
+When building for Android, NativePHP resizes your splash screens (and [app icon](app-icon)) into a bitmap for every
+screen density. By default these are written as PNG files.
+
+Full-screen splash images are large, and multiplied across five densities and two themes they can add tens of
+megabytes to your app bundle. Google Play Console flags this under "Optimize your app's images".
+
+To ship smaller files, set the `image_format` option under the `android` key in `config/nativephp.php` to `webp`:
+
+```php
+'android' => [
+    'image_format' => env('NATIVEPHP_ANDROID_IMAGE_FORMAT', 'png'),
+],
+```
+
+```dotenv
+NATIVEPHP_ANDROID_IMAGE_FORMAT=webp
+```
+
+- `png` - Default. Compressed PNG files.
+- `webp` - Lossless WebP files. Same visual output, usually 80-90% smaller than PNG.
+
+When switching formats, the files from the previous format are removed on the next build, so you won't get
+duplicate resource errors.
+
+You may also supply `public/splash.webp` and `public/splash-dark.webp` as sources for Android. When both a `.webp`
+and a `.png` exist, the `.webp` is used.
+
+<aside>
+
+WebP output requires your PHP GD extension to be compiled with WebP support. If it isn't, NativePHP falls back to
+PNG output instead of failing the build. You can check with `php -r "var_dump(function_exists('imagewebp'));"`.
+
+iOS always uses the PNG files, so keep `public/splash.png` and `public/splash-dark.png` if you build for iOS.
