WebP to PNG Converter
Private browser-based WebP to PNG converter. Convert WebP to PNG without uploading files, keep transparency, and turn animated WebP into APNG.
How to Convert WebP to PNG
Choose a WebP file
Select single or multiple WebP files from your device or drop them directly into the converter.
Convert locally
Static images become lossless PNGs and animated images become APNGs preserving all frame timing.
Review & download
Inspect the transparent checkerboard preview and download individual files or a combined ZIP archive.
Keep Transparent Backgrounds
The converter preserves the full 8-bit alpha channel, ensuring transparent backgrounds, translucent shadows, and anti-aliased edges look identical to the original WebP source.
Animated WebP Becomes APNG
Unlike simple converters that discard subsequent frames, WebPinPNG extracts every animated frame and compiles them into an Animated PNG (APNG) with exact loop counts and millisecond timing.
What Does “WebP in PNG” Mean?
It means converting WebP image data into authentic PNG format. Simply renaming a file from .webp to .png does not change internal byte structure. True decoding and re-encoding is necessary for software compatibility.
Why PNG Can Be Larger
PNG stores pixels using lossless Deflate compression, whereas many WebPs utilize lossy predictive transforms. Converting to PNG guarantees no further generational loss, but may produce a larger file size.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert WebP to PNG?+
Choose a WebP file from your device, convert it in your browser, then download the PNG. An animated WebP produces an APNG.
Are my images uploaded?+
No. The conversion runs in your browser on your device. Loading the website itself still requires network requests.
Will transparency be preserved?+
Yes. The converter preserves transparent and semi-transparent pixels when writing the PNG.
What happens to animated WebP?+
It becomes APNG rather than a still frame. Frames, timing and looping are preserved. Some legacy image viewers display only a still image.
Does converting to PNG improve quality?+
PNG encoding adds no lossy compression, but it cannot recover detail already removed when the WebP was created.
Why is the PNG larger?+
WebP and PNG use different compression methods. A losslessly encoded PNG can take more space than the original WebP.
Can I rename a .webp file to .png?+
Renaming changes the filename, not the format. Decode and re-encode the image to create a PNG.
Is this converter free?+
Yes — after you sign in, Free-tier conversion is available. Future paid options may raise batch limits; see Pricing for the current policy.
