Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I convert WebP to PNG?

While WebP is more efficient, PNG has universal compatibility across all devices, browsers, and image editing software. Convert to PNG when you need maximum compatibility or when working with older systems.

Will transparency be preserved?

Yes! Both WebP and PNG support alpha transparency. Your converted PNG will maintain all transparency from the original WebP image with full quality preservation.

Are my images uploaded to a server?

No! All image conversions happen locally in your browser using HTML5 Canvas technology. Your images never leave your device, ensuring complete privacy and security. This also makes the conversion instant.

Will the PNG file be larger than WebP?

Yes, typically PNG files will be 25-35% larger than WebP because PNG uses less aggressive compression. However, PNG's universal compatibility often makes the larger file size worthwhile.

What if I need a JPG instead?

If you need a smaller file size and don't require transparency, consider converting to JPG instead. We also offer PNG to JPG converter for that purpose.

What file size limits are there?

The converter handles images up to 50MB and dimensions up to 16,384 pixels. This covers virtually all WebP images. Processing happens instantly in your browser with high-quality output.
