Short answer

WebP files can be converted to PNG in a browser without uploading them. PNG is the right target when the image has a transparent background — logos, icons, stickers and cut-outs — because PNG keeps the alpha channel while JPEG discards it. The conversion is lossless from the decoded WebP onward, so no further detail is given up.

Most images saved from the web now arrive as WebP, and the software that cannot open them is the same software that has always accepted PNG. PNG is the safe destination for anything with transparency, and for screenshots, logos and flat-colour graphics where JPEG artefacts would be visible.

Expect the PNG to be larger, often several times so, because it stores every pixel exactly rather than approximating them. For photographs without transparency, converting to JPG instead gives a far smaller file.

How to use it

  1. 1

    Add the WebP

    Drop in the .webp file you want to convert.

  2. 2

    Convert

    The image is decoded and re-encoded as PNG on your device, alpha channel included.

  3. 3

    Download the PNG

    Save the file with its transparency intact.

Frequently asked questions

Is the transparent background kept?

Yes. PNG supports a full alpha channel, so transparent and semi-transparent areas of the WebP survive the conversion exactly.

Does converting lose quality?

Nothing further is lost. PNG stores the decoded WebP pixels exactly. Any loss already present from the original WebP compression stays as it is.

Why is the PNG so much larger?

PNG is lossless, and WebP was designed to be roughly a quarter of the size at the same visual quality. A large increase is normal.

Should I convert to PNG or JPG?

PNG for anything with transparency, and for logos, screenshots and line art. JPG for photographs with no transparency, where the file will be several times smaller.
