Use this WebP to PNG converter to convert WebP to PNG without losing alpha—handy when a template or editor insists on PNG instead of .webp.

While WebP has become the gold standard for web performance, you may often find yourself needing to convert it back to a more traditional format. Our free WebP to PNG converter is designed for one specific, crucial purpose: to convert your WebP files to the universally compatible PNG format while **perfectly preserving transparency**.
The choice between converting WebP to PNG or JPG comes down to one thing: transparency. Both WebP and PNG support an "alpha channel," which allows for transparent backgrounds. The JPG format does *not*.
You should use this WebP to PNG converter if:
If your image is a photograph and does *not* have transparency, our WebP to JPG converter is a better choice, as it will produce a smaller file.
Our tool makes this process foolproof and ensures your transparency is never lost.
Be aware that your new PNG file will almost always be **significantly larger** than your original WebP file. This is expected behavior. WebP uses much more modern and efficient compression algorithms, even in its lossless mode. You are trading the small file size of WebP for the universal compatibility of PNG.
We built this tool for professional use. All file transfers are secured with SSL (HTTPS). Our system is fully automated and does not keep your files. All uploaded WebP images and the resulting PNGs are **permanently deleted from our servers** after one hour. We never access, share, or analyze your files.
When downstream steps require PNG—design handoffs, certain game pipelines—this conversion preserves alpha better than flattening to JPEG.
PNG may be larger than WebP; compress PNG afterward for sharing.
Going web-first again? PNG to WebP.
1. Click 'Select Files' and upload your WebP images. 2. Click 'Convert'. 3. Download your new PNG files. Transparency is automatically preserved.
The main reason to convert WebP to PNG is for compatibility, especially with older software. Many desktop image editors (like older versions of Photoshop) do not support WebP. PNG is a universally supported lossless format that also handles transparency, making it the best alternative.
No. Both WebP and PNG formats fully support 8-bit alpha channel (transparency). Our tool is designed to perfectly preserve the transparency from your WebP file in the new PNG file.
Yes, almost certainly. WebP's main advantage is its superior compression. A lossless WebP is about 26% smaller than the equivalent PNG. A lossy WebP (with transparency) can be 70-80% smaller. You are trading the small file size of WebP for the universal compatibility of PNG.
This tool is specifically for WebP files. If you have iPhone photos, please use our dedicated HEIC to PNG converter. It also includes an auto-rotation feature to fix common iPhone orientation issues.
The 'Quality' slider (1-100) is converted into a PNG compression level (0-9). A higher quality setting (like 90-100) will result in less compression (a larger file) but faster processing. A lower quality setting will use more compression (a smaller file) but may take slightly longer to save. In all cases, the visual quality is **100% lossless**.
Yes, our WebP to PNG converter is 100% free. You can convert unlimited images, including batch conversions, with no watermarks or registration.
Yes. Our tool is a batch converter. You can select and upload multiple WebP files, and the tool will convert all of them to PNG at the same time.
Yes. We use a secure SSL (HTTPS) connection for all file transfers. Your original WebP files and converted PNGs are automatically and permanently deleted from our servers after one hour.
No. This tool is for static (still) WebP images. If you upload an animated WebP, it will only convert the first frame of the animation into a single, static PNG image.
Use WebP to PNG if your image has transparency (like a logo) and you need to keep it. Use WebP to JPG if your image is a photograph and you just need it to be compatible, as JPG does not support transparency (it will be filled with white).
