WebP to PNG Converter
Upload a WebP image and convert it to PNG format in your browser. This is the best conversion path when you need to preserve transparency — both WebP and PNG support alpha channels, so transparent areas are maintained in the output.
WebP is a modern format with excellent compression, but not all software can open it. PNG is universally supported and uses lossless compression, making it ideal for graphics, screenshots, and images that need to be edited further without quality degradation.
The conversion runs entirely in your browser using the native Canvas API. Nothing is uploaded to a server.

Frequently asked questions
Does this preserve WebP transparency?▼
Yes. Both WebP and PNG support alpha channels, so transparent areas in the original WebP image are preserved in the PNG output.
Why is the PNG file larger than the WebP?▼
PNG uses lossless compression which preserves every pixel exactly, while WebP typically uses lossy compression that discards imperceptible detail. The tradeoff for PNG's universal compatibility and lossless quality is a larger file size.
Can I convert animated WebP files?▼
No — this tool converts only the first frame of an animated WebP. For animated images, you'd need a tool that handles frame-by-frame extraction.
