WebP batch converter

Add WebP files and convert them to PNG.

WebP → PNGNo files yet

The only way to make the file smaller here. PNG has no quality setting to trade away.

Reduces the image size in pixels to make the file smaller.

Add WebP files to start

How it works

  1. 01

    Add your WebP files

    Drop, paste or pick any number. The files stay in this tab, and the page sends them nowhere.

  2. 02

    Check the new sizes

    PNG keeps every pixel, so most files grow. Each row shows the new size.

  3. 03

    Download

    Save one file, or the whole batch as a zip. Your WebP files stay as they are.

Expect a bigger file

Know this before you start. WebP was made so web pages load fast, and many WebP files are lossy. Their encoder threw detail away to get the size down. PNG throws nothing away. It stores what is left, pixel by pixel, so the same picture needs far more room. A photo can easily come out ten times bigger.

The picture does not improve on the way. Nothing can put back what the WebP already dropped. What you gain is a format almost everything reads. Older design software and some print shops still refuse a WebP, which is a common reason to convert.

One thing does carry over: a clear background stays clear. Both formats hold transparency, so a logo cut out of its background arrives cut out. Convert that same file to JPG and the clear part becomes a solid colour, because JPG cannot hold it.

Size
Usually larger. PNG keeps every pixel, so nothing is cut.
Transparency
Kept. Both formats hold clear pixels, so none are filled.
Batch
No limit on files. One at a time, so memory stays flat.
Originals
Never touched. Converting always writes a new file.

Frequently asked questions

Why is my PNG bigger than the WebP?
Because WebP was made to be small and PNG was made to be exact. Many WebP files are lossy, so their encoder threw detail away to save space. PNG stores what is left pixel by pixel, and that takes more room. A photo can easily come out ten times bigger.
Does the see-through part survive?
Yes. WebP and PNG both hold clear pixels, so a logo with a cut-out background stays cut out. Nothing is filled in behind it. Converting to JPG is what loses it.
Why would I want a PNG instead?
Because something you use will not read WebP. Older design software and some print shops still refuse it. Almost everything reads a PNG, and that is the whole reason to convert.
Does this make the picture sharper?
No. A lossy WebP has already dropped detail, and nothing can put it back. You get a bigger file with the same picture in it. Convert for the format, not for quality.
What about an animated WebP?
You get the first frame as a still PNG. PNG holds one frame, so the rest cannot come along. If you need the animation, keep the WebP.
Is there a quality setting?
No, and nothing is missing. PNG has no lossy mode, so a quality dial would do nothing at all. To get a smaller file, set the size to 75% or 50%.
How many files can I convert at once?
As many as you like. Files run one at a time, so a long queue never holds a stack of decoded images in memory. Your free memory is the only real ceiling.
Do my images get uploaded?
No. Every decode and re-encode happens in this tab. The image data never leaves your device, so there is no copy to delete.
Are my WebP files changed?
No. Your browser reads each one and writes a separate new PNG for you to download. The file on your disk is untouched.
What happens to EXIF data?
The tool drops it, including the camera and location data. Your browser redraws the pixels on a canvas, and nothing else comes along.
Does this work offline?
Yes. Once the page has loaded, converting carries on with no network connection.
