Convert WebP to PNG
Turn WebP images into widely-supported, lossless PNG files — with transparency preserved. Everything runs in your browser, so your images stay private.
Privacy-first: every image is processed locally in your browser. Nothing is uploaded, stored or transmitted to any server.
Why you keep running into WebP files
Most images you save from the modern web arrive as WebP — sites serve it because it is small and fast. The trouble starts offline: older versions of Photoshop, Office, and plenty of upload forms and image viewers still refuse it. Converting to PNG turns that saved image into a file that opens absolutely everywhere.
PNG keeps everything
PNG is a lossless container, so the conversion preserves every pixel the WebP contained, including transparency — nothing is re-compressed away. Expect the PNG to be noticeably larger than the WebP was; that is the price of universal compatibility and clean editability, not a quality change.
Converted without an upload
Your browser decodes the WebP and re-encodes it as PNG on your own device. There is no server in the pipeline, which also means no size caps and no queue — a folder of files converts as fast as your machine can process it.
Frequently asked questions
- Which formats are supported?
- You can convert to and from JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF and BMP, and convert from HEIC/HEIF (iPhone photos). Browsers cannot create HEIC files, so HEIC is input-only. Output formats your browser cannot encode are detected and disabled automatically.
- Can I convert HEIC to JPG?
- Yes. Drop in a HEIC photo from an iPhone and choose JPG (or PNG/WebP). The HEIC file is decoded locally in your browser with a bundled decoder — it is never uploaded anywhere.
- Is transparency preserved?
- Yes, when converting to a format that supports an alpha channel (PNG, WebP, AVIF). For formats without transparency (JPG, BMP), you can pick a background color for transparent areas.
- Is my image uploaded?
- No. Conversion runs entirely in your browser — your images never touch a server.
- What is AVIF and should I use it?
- AVIF produces the smallest high-quality files. Encoding support varies by browser, so PixelVault enables it only when your browser can create AVIF files.
- Can I convert many images at once?
- Yes. Batch-convert a whole folder of images and export them together as a ZIP.
