WEBP and PNG compared
WEBP can store images either lossy or lossless and it supports transparency, which is why websites use it for everything from product photos to logos. PNG does the same job in a format that almost every app on every system already understands.
Why convert WEBP to PNG
Choose PNG over JPG when the image has a transparent background, text, or sharp edges. PNG is lossless, so the converted file keeps exactly the pixels your browser decoded from the WEBP, including the transparent areas.
How to convert WEBP to PNG
- Drop your WEBP files onto the box above.
- Press Convert to PNG. There is no quality setting because PNG is lossless.
- Save each PNG, or grab them all at once as a zip.
Nothing is uploaded. The conversion runs inside your own browser, so your files never touch a server and there is no queue, no size cap and no sign up.
WEBP to PNG questions
Does the PNG keep the transparent background?
Yes. Transparency is carried across pixel for pixel.
Why is the PNG bigger than the WEBP?
WEBP compresses harder than PNG. The larger file is the price of a format that every program can open, and no detail is lost on the way.
Can I turn the PNG back into WEBP later?
Yes, the PNG to WEBP converter on this site does the reverse, also without uploading anything.
