Frequently Asked Questions

What is WebP format?

WebP is an image format developed by Google that provides superior lossless and lossy compression for web images. WebP files are typically 25-35% smaller than their JPEG or PNG equivalents with the same visual quality, which makes websites load faster and use less bandwidth.

Why would I need to convert WebP images?

While WebP offers excellent compression and is supported by most modern browsers, you might need to convert WebP images if:

• You need to use the images in software that doesn&#39t support WebP
• You&#39re sharing images with people using older software or devices
• You need to print the images, as some printing services don&#39t accept WebP
• You&#39re working with a system that requires specific image formats like JPG or PNG

How do I convert a WebP image?

Converting a WebP image is simple:

1. Upload your WebP file using the upload button or drag-and-drop area
2. Select your desired output format (JPG, PNG, or GIF)
3. Adjust any quality settings if needed
4. Click the "Start Conversion" button
5. Once conversion is complete, download your converted image

Is there a file size limit?

Yes, our converter has a 5MB file size limit per image. This is sufficient for most WebP images, as one of the benefits of WebP is its smaller file size.

Is my data secure?

Yes, your images are processed directly in your browser. They are not uploaded to our servers, ensuring complete privacy and security of your data.

Which format should I choose?

The best format depends on your needs:

• JPG: Best for photographs and complex images with many colors. Smaller file size but lossy compression.
• PNG: Best for images that need transparency or lossless quality. Larger file size but no quality loss.
• GIF: Suitable for simple animations or images with limited colors.

Does conversion affect image quality?

Converting from WebP to another format can potentially affect image quality, depending on the settings:

• Converting to PNG will preserve quality as it&#39s lossless
• Converting to JPG may reduce quality depending on the compression level (you can adjust this in our tool)
• Converting to GIF may reduce quality and color depth

What happens to transparent WebP images?

If your WebP image has transparency:

• Converting to PNG will preserve the transparency
• Converting to JPG will replace transparent areas with a white background
• Converting to GIF will preserve basic transparency (not alpha channel)

Can I convert animated WebP images?

Currently, our tool supports static WebP image conversion. For animated WebP files, you may need a dedicated animated image converter.
