Is my file uploaded to your server?

No, absolutely not. All conversions happen entirely in your browser. Your files never leave your device and are never uploaded to any server. We take privacy seriously - your file contents remain completely private on your device throughout the entire conversion process.

What is the difference between WEBP and PNG?

WEBP is a modern format with better compression (smaller files) but limited compatibility. PNG is a universal lossless format that works everywhere. WEBP is better for modern web use and file size. PNG is better for maximum compatibility, transparency preservation, and professional graphics work. Both support transparency, but PNG has wider support across software and devices.

Will converting to PNG improve image quality?

No, converting won't improve quality beyond what's in the original WEBP. PNG will preserve the current quality without any compression artifacts. The benefit is preventing further quality loss in future edits and ensuring compatibility. PNG's lossless nature means you can edit the image multiple times without degradation, unlike lossy formats.

Why is my PNG file larger than the original WEBP?

This is completely normal and expected. PNG uses lossless compression which preserves all quality but results in larger files. WEBP uses more advanced compression algorithms that can create smaller files. For graphics with transparency, PNG files can be 1.5-3x larger than WEBP. The trade-off is perfect quality preservation and universal compatibility.

Can I convert multiple WEBP files at once?

You can convert one file at a time. After converting and downloading your file, click the Clear button to start a new conversion. This simple workflow ensures you have full control over each conversion and makes credit usage transparent (1 credit per file).

Does PNG preserve transparency from WEBP?

Yes, absolutely! PNG fully supports transparency (alpha channel) just like WEBP. When you convert WEBP to PNG, all transparent areas are preserved perfectly with no quality loss. This makes it ideal for logos, graphics, and images with transparent backgrounds.

When should I convert WEBP to PNG?

Convert WEBP to PNG when you need: (1) Maximum compatibility with older software and devices. (2) To preserve transparency for graphics and logos. (3) Perfect quality for professional graphics work. (4) To edit images multiple times without quality loss. (5) When working with design tools that don't support WEBP. Keep WEBP if you're only using it on modern websites where file size matters.

What is the maximum WEBP file size I can convert?

You can convert WEBP files up to 20MB in size. Most WEBP images are well under this limit due to the format's efficient compression. If you have a very large WEBP file, you may need to resize or compress it first before converting to PNG.

Will transparency look the same in PNG as in WEBP?

Yes! PNG preserves transparency exactly as it appears in the WEBP file. Both formats support full alpha channel transparency, so there should be no visible difference. PNG is actually the industry standard for transparency, so you can be confident the transparent areas will look perfect.

How does the conversion work?

All processing happens directly in your browser. When you upload a WEBP file, your browser converts it to PNG format locally on your device. This ensures fast, private, and secure conversions without any server-side processing or file uploads.

Troubleshooting

File not converting?

Check file size (must be under 20MB)
Verify file is actually WEBP format
Try refreshing the page
Ensure your browser is up to date

Output file is much larger?

This is normal - PNG is lossless and doesn't compress as aggressively
WEBP uses more efficient compression algorithms
For photos, consider keeping WEBP unless you need PNG's benefits
For graphics and logos, the quality benefit is worth the size increase

Transparency looks different?

PNG should preserve transparency perfectly from WEBP
If transparency looks wrong, the original WEBP file may not have had proper alpha
Try viewing in different software to verify

Browser compatibility issues?

Use latest version of Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge
Try a different browser if issues persist
