Convert WebP to PNG

Choose PNG when the image has transparency, sharp edges or text: logos, icons, stickers, diagrams and screenshots. PNG keeps all of that exactly, and a transparent background stays transparent.

Choose JPG for ordinary photos without transparency. A photo saved as PNG is several times larger than the same photo as a JPG, with no visible benefit. The WebP to JPG page is the better fit there.

Messaging apps often store stickers as WebP, sometimes animated. To use one in a slide, a document or a design tool, PNG is the safest choice, because almost every program reads PNG transparency correctly.

Animated WebP files open as their first frame. The page tells you when that happens, so you never get a still image by surprise.

A lossy WebP has already lost some detail. Converting it to PNG doesn’t bring that detail back; it freezes the picture exactly as it is now, so nothing more is lost in later edits. That makes PNG a good working copy if you plan to edit the image several times before a final export.

Lossless WebP files, common for screenshots, convert to PNG with no change at all to the pixels.

The WebP is decoded and written out as PNG by your own browser. Neither the original nor the converted file is sent to a server, and nothing is kept after you close the tab.

Metadata inside the WebP, such as EXIF or XMP, is not copied into the PNG.

You don't have to take our word for it. Three checks:

1. Open your browser's developer tools, choose the Network tab, then open and save an image. No request carries your file.
2. Open an image here once, then turn on airplane mode and run the same job again. It still works, because nothing needs a server.
3. Read the page's response headers: its Content-Security-Policy lets it connect only to this site itself, so there is no outside host a file could go to.

How it works, and how to check it yourself
