WebP to JPEG Converter

WebP is an image format from Google, created for the web. WebP files are 25-35% smaller than JPEG at the same quality. The format supports transparency and animation.

Some programs (older Photoshop versions, Word, PowerPoint) don't open WebP. Printers and photo labs also require JPEG or PNG. Conversion solves the compatibility problem.

WebP saves bandwidth and speeds up page loading. Google promotes the format in Chrome, Android, and its services. When downloading images from websites, you often get WebP.

Both WebP and JPEG use lossy compression. At 90+ quality, the difference from the original is minimal. For maximum detail preservation, convert to PNG.

JPEG doesn't support transparency. Transparent areas become white. If you need transparency, convert WebP to PNG.

Modern websites automatically serve WebP to Chrome and Firefox browsers. Convert the downloaded WebP to JPEG — it's easier than looking for alternative links.

Photoshop 23.2 (2022) and newer supports WebP natively. For older versions, you need the WebPShop plugin from Google or convert to JPEG/PNG.

The converter will extract the first frame of the animation. To preserve animation, convert WebP to GIF or MP4 using specialized tools.

For long-term storage, JPEG is preferable: the format has existed since 1992 and is guaranteed to open decades from now. WebP is a relatively new standard.

JPEG is usually 20-40% larger than WebP at comparable quality. The exact size depends on image content and chosen quality setting.
