How to convert WebP to PNG

  1. Drop one or more .webp files on the input, or click it to choose them. A copied image can also be pasted with Ctrl+V.
  2. Watch the list. Files are converted one at a time, and each row shows the WebP size, the PNG size and the change in percent.
  3. Click Download on a row to save that PNG (banner.webp downloads as banner.png). With two or more files, Download all (.zip) saves every converted file in one zip.

Why use this tool

  • Images an app will not open

    Some image editors, office tools and upload forms still refuse WebP. Convert the file to PNG and it opens anywhere.

  • Editing a downloaded web image

    Images saved from websites often arrive as WebP. A PNG copy can be edited and saved again without adding another round of lossy compression.

  • A folder of WebP assets

    Drop a whole set of WebP icons or screenshots at once and download every PNG in a single zip.

Private by design

Your files are decoded and converted in this browser tab and never uploaded, so client artwork and unreleased designs stay on your device. No account and no watermark.

Good to know

What PNG keeps. PNG is lossless, so the PNG keeps the picture as your browser decoded the WebP, with no further loss. It cannot bring back detail that a lossy WebP already dropped: the PNG looks the same as the WebP, not like the original photo.

Expect a larger file. WebP compresses better than PNG, so the PNG is usually larger, sometimes several times larger for a photo. Each row shows the change with a plus sign.

Transparency, metadata and animation. Transparent areas stay transparent in the PNG. The image is redrawn by your browser, so metadata such as EXIF details is not copied. An animated WebP gives a PNG of its first frame.

Batches. Files are converted one after another, with progress shown as "Converting 2 of 5…", and a file that fails gets its own error without stopping the rest. Dropping new files replaces the list. Two files with the same name are saved as banner.png and banner (2).png. The zip stores the PNG files as they are, without compressing them again.

Limits. Images up to 16,384 px on a side and 67 megapixels in total can be converted. Files over 50 MB get a warning, since they can take a long time and use a lot of memory.

Example

In — A 48 KB WebP

banner.webp

Out — Its row after converting to a 120 KB PNG

banner.webp → banner.png
48.0 KB → 120.0 KB (+150%)

Frequently asked questions

Will the PNG look better than the WebP?

No. Converting keeps the picture as it is, including any blur or blockiness from WebP compression. PNG only stops further loss when you edit and save the image again.

Why is the PNG so much larger?

PNG compresses without losing anything, while most WebP files are lossy, so the PNG has to store far more detail. That is expected; the row shows the change in percent.

Is transparency kept?

Yes. Transparent and semi-transparent areas of the WebP stay transparent in the PNG. The thumbnails show them over a checkerboard.

What happens to an animated WebP?

PNG holds a single image here, so you get a PNG of the first frame. The rest of the animation is not included.

Are my files uploaded?

No. Every WebP is decoded and saved as PNG in this browser tab, and the zip is built in the tab too. Nothing is sent to a server.
