About WebP to PNG

WebP to PNG saves a WebP picture as a PNG, for software that does not read WebP. PNG is lossless, so the image is stored as your browser decodes it, and transparent areas stay transparent. A lossy WebP keeps the compression artifacts it already has: converting does not restore detail. An animated WebP becomes its first frame only, and the page warns you before converting. The PNG keeps the name of the WebP. Each conversion takes one WebP and builds its PNG on this page.

Where your file is processed

No upload takes place: your browser decodes the WebP and the PNG is built in memory on this page, by the canvas or, for very large images on iPhone and iPad, by the page's own PNG writer. When an error is shown, its cleaned message, the tool's name, and your browser's name and version reach our log.

Frequently asked questions

Does the PNG keep the transparent areas?

Yes. WebP and PNG both have an alpha channel, so transparent and semi-transparent pixels stay that way. Partly transparent edge colors can change slightly in the browser's canvas, more for nearly transparent pixels.

Does converting restore detail a lossy WebP lost?

No. The PNG stores the WebP exactly as decoded, including any blur or blocks from its compression. It only stops further loss if you edit and save the picture again.

Can I convert an animated WebP?

No, not as an animation. The PNG holds the first frame only, and a note says so when you pick the file. To keep every frame, convert the animation to GIF.
