WEBP to JPG
Saved an image from a website and got a .webp file that won't open? Start here.
Why WEBP — and why won't it open?
WEBP is Google's web image format. It's 25–35% smaller than JPG, so many websites serve photos as WEBP. When you save an image from the web you often get a .webp file, which older photo viewers, document editors and some upload forms don't accept. This tool turns WEBP into JPG or PNG, which work everywhere.
Transparent backgrounds
WEBP and PNG can have transparent areas, but JPG can't. When converting to JPG you pick the fill color (white by default); choose PNG to keep transparency. A checkerboard in the thumbnail marks transparent areas.
Other formats
- AVIF — a newer web format; it converts if your browser supports it.
- GIF — animated GIFs are converted using the first frame.
- BMP and PNG — large formats that shrink a lot as JPG.
Conversion happens in your browser and nothing is uploaded. Remember that converting an image doesn't change its copyright.
Frequently asked questions
Is there quality loss?
JPG is lossy, so there can be tiny differences. “Best” is practically indistinguishable.
My AVIF file won't open.
Your browser needs AVIF support. Try the latest Chrome, Edge or Safari.
Can I convert JPG to WEBP instead?
Yes — in Compress Image, choose WEBP as the output format.
