How to convert a WebP image to JPG or PNG so it opens anywhere

Drop the .webp file into Convert image, keep JPG for a photo or pick PNG if the image has a transparent background, then download. The new file opens in older photo apps, office documents and upload forms that turn WebP away.

Steps

1. Open Convert image and drop in the WebP files, or click to choose them.
2. Under Convert to, choose JPG for photos, or PNG for logos, icons, stickers and anything with see-through parts.
3. For JPG, keep Quality at 92%. For PNG there is no quality setting, because PNG keeps every pixel.
4. For JPG, pick a Transparent areas colour if the WebP has a transparent background. White is the default.
5. Compare, then press Download, or save the whole batch as one zip.

Why sites give you WebP

WebP is a format made for the web. It usually stores a picture in a smaller file than JPG or PNG at a similar look, so pages load faster, and nearly all current browsers show it. That is why right-clicking an image on many sites saves a .webp file even when the page looks like it shows a normal photo.

The trouble starts outside the browser. Some image viewers, older editing apps and upload forms do not accept WebP, or show it as an unknown file. Converting gives you a format they expect.

JPG or PNG?

If you are not sure whether the image has transparency, choose PNG. It keeps everything, at the cost of a larger file.

What happens to the quality

A WebP image is often already compressed. Converting it to JPG compresses it a second time, which can add a little softness. At 92% you are unlikely to see it; if you do, try 100%. Converting to PNG adds no further loss, but it cannot restore detail the WebP had already dropped, so the PNG will not look sharper than the WebP did.

Converting the other way

The same tool turns JPG and PNG into WebP: choose WebP under Convert to. That suits images for your own website, since WebP keeps transparency and usually comes out smaller. For a site that also caps the file size, finish with Compress image, which can keep WebP output while it hits a target.

Troubleshooting

• The JPG has a white box where the background was clear. JPG cannot store transparency. Convert to PNG instead, or choose a fill colour that matches where the image will sit.
• The file is listed with an error. The browser could not open it as an image. It may be a different format with a .webp name; try opening it in a browser tab first.
• The converted image is larger than the WebP. That is normal. JPG and PNG are usually bigger than WebP for the same picture.

Questions

Can I convert many WebP images at once?

Yes. Drop them in together; they all use the same format and quality, and you can download them one by one or as one zip.

Will the image be uploaded to a server?

No. Each file is decoded and re-saved by your browser, on your device.

Can I convert WebP to PNG without losing quality?

PNG adds no loss of its own, so the PNG matches the WebP as you saw it.

What about AVIF files?

Convert image also opens AVIF in browsers that support it, which includes current Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari, and saves them as JPG, PNG or WebP.
