WebP to PNG Converter

This WebP to PNG converter turns WebP images into PNG files in your browser, keeping transparency, so you get a copy that any editor, print shop or older app can open. It is the usual fix when a picture saved from a website arrives as .webp and your software refuses it, or when you need a lossless file to keep editing. Drop in one file or hundreds, press Convert to PNG, and download a single file or one ZIP. The conversion adds no new compression, although the PNG will be bigger than the WebP. Animated WebP files are detected, and GIF output keeps the animation. Nothing is uploaded, and you can switch the output to JPG if you prefer.

Bulk supported. Add several files and they are processed in a queue with one ZIP download. The same settings apply to every file, and nothing leaves your device.

How to use

01

Add the WebP images

Drag .webp files onto the upload area or click to browse, up to 50 MB each. One file shows its size and dimensions and warns you if it is animated; more files start bulk mode.

02

Keep PNG, or pick JPG

PNG is preselected and needs no quality setting. Leave Max width and Max height empty to keep the exact dimensions, choose JPG under Output format for smaller files, or GIF to keep an animation.

03

Convert and download

Press Convert to PNG. A single file downloads with the same name and a .png extension. A batch shows the total size change and saves as converted-png.zip.

Why WebP to PNG Converter

WebP vs PNG vs JPG

WebP works well for serving images on the web, but it is still not the safest format for editing and sharing. PNG and JPG open almost everywhere. This table shows what you gain and lose when converting.

In short, pick PNG when you want to edit the image or keep a transparent background, and JPG when you need the smallest file that any app or form will accept. Keep the original WebP too if you run a website, since it is usually the lightest version to publish.

Animated WebP files

A WebP file can hold an animation, much like a GIF. Stickers from messaging apps and some website banners are often animated WebP. The file header has an animation flag, and this converter reads it before converting, so you get a warning on the preview card or in the batch summary.

PNG and JPG files hold one image each, so only the first frame is saved. For many stickers the first frame is a fine still version. If you need the motion, choose GIF output: browsers with the WebCodecs image decoder (Chrome and Edge) read every frame and the converter writes an animated GIF with the original delays. GIF is limited to 256 colours per frame, so gradients can look slightly grainy.

Everything else about the file carries over: the size in pixels, the transparency and the colours of that first frame.

Common questions

Does the WebP to PNG converter keep transparency?
Yes. PNG has a full alpha channel, so transparent and partly transparent pixels come through exactly as they were in the WebP. A soft drop shadow at 40 percent opacity stays at 40 percent.
Is converting WebP to PNG lossless?
The conversion step is: every decoded pixel is stored exactly, with no new compression. PNG cannot restore detail the original WebP encoder removed, so the result is only as good as the source.
Why is the PNG so much bigger than the WebP?
WebP usually compresses far better than PNG, especially for photos. Unpacking it into a lossless PNG can make the file many times larger. The summary after a batch shows the exact size change.
What happens to an animated WebP when converted to PNG?
The tool checks each WebP and warns you if it is animated. PNG holds one frame, so only the first frame is saved. To keep the animation, pick GIF as the output with Keep animation on. Chrome and Edge decode every frame and save an animated GIF with the same timing.
Can I convert many WebP files to PNG at once?
Yes. Select them all and drop them in together, or add more after the first file. They are converted in order and Download all saves one ZIP, with each file keeping its original name.
Does WebP to PNG conversion change the image dimensions?
No, width and height stay the same unless you type a Max width or Max height. If you do, larger images are scaled down to fit with the aspect ratio kept.
Can I convert WebP to JPG on the same page?
Yes. Choose JPG under Output format, set a quality, and pick the colour for transparent areas. There is also a dedicated WebP to JPG converter with the same options.
Is my image uploaded when converting WebP to PNG?
No. The browser decodes the WebP and writes the PNG on your device without any network request. Client artwork and private images stay on your computer or phone.
