Why convert WebP to PNG?

PNG remains the universal interchange format: every image editor, office suite and legacy tool accepts it. When a WebP file gets rejected by software that predates the format — or by a picky upload form — a lossless PNG conversion is the fix, with transparency fully preserved.

Conversion happens entirely in your browser — no upload, no queue, no watermark. Drop in as many files as you like and download them individually or as a zip.

Frequently asked questions

Why won't some programs open WebP files?
WebP is a web-era format; plenty of desktop software, older OS image viewers and upload forms only accept PNG or JPG. Converting to PNG is lossless and makes the image universally compatible.
Are my images uploaded anywhere?
No. Conversion happens inside your browser using the canvas API and a Web Worker — files never leave your device. There is no upload step, no queue and no file size limit beyond your machine's memory.
Is EXIF metadata kept in the converted image?
No — and that's a feature. Re-encoding through the canvas strips all metadata: GPS location, camera model, timestamps and color profiles. The output contains pixels only, which is usually what you want before sharing an image publicly.
Can I convert many images at once?
Yes. Drop or paste any number of files; each is converted in the background with its own progress and download button, and you can grab everything at once as a .zip archive.
Why did my image get re-compressed even converting PNG to PNG?
The converter always decodes to raw pixels and re-encodes, which is also how metadata gets stripped. For lossless targets (PNG, and GIF within its 256-color limit) the pixels stay identical; for JPEG and WebP the quality slider controls the trade-off.
