WebP to JPG

You saved an image from a website, got a .webp file instead of a JPG, and now it won't upload anywhere? Convert WebP to JPG here, the format that forms, listing sites and older programs all know. A few clicks, nothing to install.

Files never leave your device

Drop images here or

Many websites now serve images as WebP, so when you save one, that's the file you get. It looks fine in the browser, but an upload form may reject it and an older photo viewer may not even open it. Drop it here and you'll have a regular JPG in a moment. Further down: why your browser saves WebP, which sites won't take it and what happens to transparent or animated images.

How to convert WebP to JPG

  1. 1

    Add your WebP images

    Drag .webp files onto the page or choose them with the button, several at once if you like.

  2. 2

    Pick a background color

    Transparent areas are filled with this color. The default white works for documents and listings.

  3. 3

    Set the quality

    The default quality of 90 suits most images. If you need a smaller file, move the slider lower.

  4. 4

    Download the JPG files

    One image downloads as a JPG, several in one ZIP. Any file that could not be converted is listed.

Where WebP gets rejected

Plenty of forms don't list WebP among the allowed formats. Google Business Profile takes only JPG or PNG, and a LinkedIn profile photo must be PNG or JPG. Older upload forms often list just JPG and PNG as well.

Why does Chrome save images as WebP?

Chrome doesn't choose the format, the website does. Many sites serve WebP because it's usually smaller than JPG at similar quality. The browser displays it without trouble, and when you save the image you get a file ending in .webp. The trouble starts outside the browser.

An older photo viewer or image editor may not open it, and an upload form may refuse it. The simplest fix is to convert it to JPG, which nearly every program and website accepts.

How to save a WebP image as JPG

Save the image the way the browser offers it, as .webp. Then drop the file on this page, click Convert WebP to JPG and download the JPG. It works the same in Chrome, Firefox, Edge and Safari, on a computer or a phone.

If you need the image for a listing or a product page, check the site's size limit after converting too, and if needed shrink the file with Compress image.

Privacy

Images are processed in your browser and never uploaded to a server. Some tools remember your settings on this device, and the files you download stay on it.

FAQ

What is a WebP file and how do I open it?
WebP is an image format made for the web. Modern browsers open it, including Safari since version 14, so you can just drag the file into a browser window. If your program won't open it or a site won't accept it, convert it to JPG here.

Why won't my program open WebP files?
Some older photo viewers and editors don't know the WebP format. Photoshop 23.2 and later open and save WebP without plug-ins, while older versions need one. If you don't want to install anything, convert the image to JPG, which every program opens.

What happens to a transparent background?
JPG has no transparency. Transparent areas, around a logo for example, are filled with the color you choose before converting, white by default. If you want to keep the transparent background, use the WebP to PNG page instead.

What about animated WebP images?
For an animated image, such as a moving sticker, only the first frame is saved to the JPG. JPG can't store animation, and the page tells you so after converting. The result is an ordinary still image.

Will the JPG be bigger than the WebP?
Usually, yes, because WebP tends to be smaller at similar quality. If you need the JPG under a certain limit, lower the quality slider, or shrink the finished file with Compress image to a maximum size you pick in KB or MB.

Can I convert several WebP files at once?
Yes. Select all the WebP files at once and each one is saved as a separate JPG. You download them in one ZIP, and if one file can't be read, the others are converted without it.

Is WebP to JPG conversion free and safe?
Yes. It's free, with no sign-up and no watermark. Images are processed right in your browser and never go to a server. The downloaded result stays only on your device.
