WEBP to PNG Converter – Keep Transparency

How to convert WEBP to PNG

1. Add your WEBP files — up to 20 at a time.
2. PNG is selected, so each image converts automatically.
3. Download the PNGs individually or as a ZIP.

When to choose PNG

• Logos and icons with transparent backgrounds.
• Stickers and cut-outs for designs and presentations.
• Screenshots and graphics with text, which stay crisp in PNG.
• Images you’ll edit in apps that don’t open WEBP.
• Design tools and slide software that handle PNG transparency better than WEBP.

For photos without transparency, WEBP to JPG gives much smaller files.

About the WEBP format

WEBP was introduced by Google to make web images smaller. It supports both lossy compression (like JPG) and lossless compression with transparency (like PNG), and is now supported by all major browsers. Some desktop apps, print services and upload forms still don’t accept it, which is why converting is handy.

Tips

• Check the background on the preview after converting: transparent areas show as a chequerboard in many apps.
• Resize large graphics with the image resizer before using them in documents.
• Make favicons from a PNG logo with the favicon generator.

Batch conversion

Select up to 20 WEBP files at once — for example a set of icons or stickers saved from a website — and convert them together. File names are kept with a .png extension, and the pixel dimensions don’t change. Use the ZIP download to save the whole set in one go.

Checking transparency

To confirm a PNG kept its transparency, open it in an app that shows a chequerboard behind transparent areas, or place it on a coloured slide. If the background turned white, the original WEBP didn’t have transparency — it simply had a white background. In that case, the background remover can cut the subject out for you.

File size

PNGs of photos are large. If a converted PNG is too big for an upload or an email, try converting the WEBP to JPG instead, or shrink the PNG with the image compressor. For icons and graphics with flat colours, PNG files usually stay small.

Using converted images

Converted PNGs work in every common app: Word, PowerPoint and Keynote, Google Docs and Slides, Canva, Photoshop and GIMP, and every web browser. They are also accepted by most upload forms that refuse WEBP files.

Converting on a phone

On a phone, tap the upload area, choose the WEBP images from your downloads, and save the PNGs. On iPhone they are saved to the Files app; on Android, to the Downloads folder.

Recent operating systems preview WEBP files, but many editing, design and office apps still work best with PNG files.

Privacy

Your images are converted on your device using your browser’s built-in image engine, and nothing is uploaded. For other conversions, try the image converter, JPG to PNG or SVG to PNG.
