WebP to PNG converter

Why convert WebP to PNG

WebP is the format many websites now serve to keep pages fast, so right-clicking an image and saving it often gives you a .webp file. Browsers display it without trouble, but plenty of other software does not: older versions of Photoshop, some office suites, print services and upload forms that only list JPG and PNG.

PNG is the safer choice when you want to edit the image further. It is lossless, so you can open, change and save it repeatedly without the image getting worse each time, which is not true of JPG. It also keeps transparency, which matters for logos, stickers, icons and cut-out product shots.

What to expect

The conversion decodes the WebP and writes a PNG with exactly the same pixels, then runs it through oxipng, a lossless optimizer that shrinks PNG files without changing a single pixel. Even so, a PNG of a photograph will be much larger than the WebP it came from. If you only need a file that opens everywhere and the image is a photo without transparency, WebP to JPG gives far smaller files.

Large images can be scaled down while converting: enter a maximum width or height and the image is resized with a high-quality Lanczos filter, keeping its proportions.

Everything runs locally in your browser tab. The WebP decoder and PNG encoder are WebAssembly builds of libwebp and oxipng, and your images are never uploaded. Conversion works in current versions of Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari.
