Command line (dwebp, ImageMagick, ffmpeg)
# libwebp
dwebp image.webp -o image.png
# ImageMagick 7
magick image.webp image.png
# ffmpeg
ffmpeg -i image.webp image.png
# convert every WebP in a folder
for f in *.webp; do dwebp "$f" -o "${f%.webp}.png"; donePython (Pillow)
from PIL import Image
img = Image.open("image.webp")
img.save("image.png") # keeps transparency
Pillow reads WebP when it is built with WebP support, which is the default in current wheels.
WebP vs PNG vs JPG: which format should you use?
WebP is made for fast websites. PNG is made for compatibility and perfect pixels. Pick the one that matches where the image is going.
| Format | Compression | Transparency | Animation | Best for | Support |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| WebP | Lossy and lossless | Yes | Yes | Fast-loading web images | All modern browsers; some older apps cannot open it |
| PNG | Lossless only | Yes (full alpha) | No | Logos, screenshots, graphics, editing | Universal |
| JPG | Lossy | No | No | Photos where small size matters | Universal |
Convert WebP to PNG when you need
- An app, printer, CMS or form that rejects WebP.
- A transparent logo or sticker in a PNG-only workflow.
- A lossless working copy to edit without more compression.
- Images for slides, documents and email templates.
Keep the WebP when
- The image is a photo on a website and page speed matters.
- You want the smallest possible file size.
- The image is animated.
- The place you are uploading to already accepts WebP.
Why do images download as WebP, and how do I get a PNG instead?
WebP is an image format developed by Google that makes files smaller than JPG and PNG at similar quality. Websites use it to load faster, so when you right-click an image and choose Save image as, your browser saves the WebP the site sent, even if the picture looked like a JPG or PNG on the page.
That is fine until you need to use the file somewhere that does not support WebP, such as an older design app, a print service, a document editor or an upload form. You have a few options:
- Convert it here. Drop the saved .webp file onto the converter and download the PNG.
- Copy and paste. Right-click the image, choose Copy image, then press Ctrl+V on this page.
- Take a screenshot of the image and save it as PNG, if the quality is good enough.
- Ask for the original. If the image is yours or you have permission, request the source file in PNG or JPG.
Only convert images you own or have the right to use. Converting a file to a different format does not change its copyright.
WebP to PNG: frequently asked questions
Quick answers about converting WebP files.
How do I convert WebP to PNG?
Drop your WebP files onto the converter at the top of this page, or click Choose files. Conversion starts automatically. Then download a single PNG or all files as one ZIP.
Is this WebP to PNG converter free?
Yes. It is free to use, with no watermark, no signup and no limit set by the tool.
Does the PNG keep the transparent background?
Yes. Transparency (the alpha channel) is kept by default. If you want a solid background instead, turn off Transparent background and pick a color.
Can I convert multiple WebP files at once?
Yes. Drop as many files as you like. Each file converts in turn, and you can download everything as a single ZIP.
Are my images uploaded to a server?
No. The conversion happens inside your browser using its built-in image engine. Your files are not sent anywhere or stored.
Does converting WebP to PNG reduce quality?
No further quality is lost, because PNG is lossless. Be aware that PNG cannot restore detail that a lossy WebP has already discarded, so the result looks the same as the WebP, not better.
Why is my PNG bigger than the WebP?
PNG stores every pixel without lossy compression, so photos are often several times larger than the same image as a lossy WebP. This is normal. Keep WebP when the smallest file matters.
Can I convert an animated WebP to PNG?
This tool exports only the first frame of an animated WebP as a PNG. To extract every frame, use a command-line tool such as ffmpeg.
How do I convert WebP to PNG on iPhone or Android?
Open this page in Safari or Chrome, tap the drop area, choose your images from Photos or Files, and save the PNG when it is ready. No app is needed.
How do I open a WebP file?
Modern browsers open WebP directly. Recent versions of Windows and macOS can also open it in their image apps. If an app refuses the file, convert it to PNG here.
How do I convert WebP to PNG in Windows 11?
Use this converter in Edge or Chrome. Alternatively, open the image in Paint and choose File, Save as, PNG picture.
Can I stop Chrome from saving images as WebP?
Chrome saves the format the website sends, and many sites send WebP. Convert the saved file here, take a screenshot, or copy the image and paste it into an editor.
Can I convert PNG to WebP with this tool?
No. This tool outputs PNG only, although it accepts WebP, JPG, PNG, GIF, AVIF and BMP as input. For PNG to WebP, use a WebP encoder such as the free Squoosh web app.
Is there a file size limit?
The tool sets no limit. Very large images can fail on devices with limited memory or small canvas limits, especially phones. Lowering the output size usually fixes it.
