What this tool is for
Convert WebP into PNG when you need transparency, lossless pixel storage, or compatibility with a design tool that accepts PNG but not WebP.
How to use it
- Choose a WebP image up to 50MB.
- Select Process Image.
- The browser decodes WebP and writes a PNG.
- Download the PNG and check its transparency and file size.
What happens to your image
The conversion happens on your device. Transparent WebP pixels remain transparent in the PNG, while the decoded color pixels are stored losslessly.
Practical uses
- Open a transparent WebP logo in a PNG-based editor.
- Prepare an asset for software that does not accept WebP.
- Create a lossless intermediate file before design work.
- Extract a still PNG from a WebP image.
Lossless output can be larger
PNG stores the decoded pixels losslessly and supports transparency. If the WebP used lossy compression, PNG cannot restore lost detail; it only avoids new loss in the output. The PNG may therefore be much larger.
Important limitations
- The PNG can be larger than the WebP.
- Lossy WebP artifacts remain visible.
- Animated WebP becomes a still PNG.
- Conversion does not increase resolution.
Frequently asked questions
Will transparency be preserved?
Yes, transparent pixels in the source WebP remain transparent in the PNG.
Why is PNG larger?
PNG stores pixels losslessly, while WebP can use more compact lossy or lossless compression.
Does PNG improve WebP quality?
No. It preserves the decoded appearance without adding detail that the source does not contain.
Should I choose JPG instead?
Choose JPG for broad photo compatibility and smaller files; choose PNG when transparency or lossless output matters.
