Convert WebP to PNG instantly

WebP is a modern image format from Google that produces small files, but not every program supports it yet — some older photo editors, office apps and devices simply refuse to open .webp files. Converting WebP to PNG turns them into a universally compatible, lossless format you can open and edit anywhere.

Because your browser already knows how to decode WebP, this tool can convert images entirely on your device: it decodes each WebP, draws it to a canvas (preserving any transparency) and saves it as a PNG. No file ever leaves your computer.

WebP vs PNG

WebP usually wins on file size, which is great for websites. PNG wins on compatibility and is the safe choice when you need to share or edit an image in a tool that doesn't understand WebP. If you need the smaller format instead, use our Image to WebP converter.

What happens during conversion

The PNG has the same width and height as the WebP. Transparent areas stay transparent, and PNG is lossless, so the decoded pixels are saved without adding further compression damage. Lossy WebP files keep their existing artifacts; converting to PNG does not bring back lost detail. Animated WebP files are not turned into animations; only a single frame, which the browser draws, is saved.

Why the PNG may be larger

WebP is designed to compress better, so the PNG is often two to five times larger, especially for photographs. That is normal. Use PNG when you need compatibility with an editor, a print service or an upload form that rejects .webp, and keep the WebP for your website. You can select several files at once: they are converted in order and each one is downloaded with its original name and a .png extension.

Everyday situations

A common case is saving an image from a website that serves WebP, then finding that an older editor, a slide deck or a document form will not accept it. Another is preparing assets for print or for a design tool that expects PNG. Converting takes a moment, and because nothing is uploaded you can also use it on private screenshots and scans. Keep the WebP originals if you still want the smaller files for publishing.

If a file does not convert, it may be damaged or use a feature your browser cannot decode. Try opening it in the browser directly to confirm it displays correctly.
