How to use
Converts WebP images, the format most websites serve, into JPG files that open in any app. Drop the WebP files, keep quality high, and download the JPGs.

- Opening images saved from websites in software that does not support WebP

Why WebP exists, and when JPG is still the better file
Google introduced WebP in 2010 to make web pages lighter. At the same visual quality, a WebP photo is typically noticeably smaller than a JPG, which is why most large sites now serve WebP automatically, and why an image you save from a browser so often arrives as .webp even if the site uploaded a JPG. Browsers all display it, but plenty of other software does not: older photo editors, some print shops, government upload forms and many email and document workflows still expect JPG.
Converting decodes the WebP and encodes a new JPG at the quality you choose. That is a second round of lossy compression, so for the cleanest result keep the quality high, around 90%, which is visually indistinguishable from the WebP for photographs. JPG has no transparency, so any see-through areas in the WebP are filled with the background colour you pick, white by default.
Do not be surprised if the JPG is larger than the WebP you started with. That is WebP doing its job, not the converter doing something wrong. If the image is going back onto a website, keep the WebP. Convert when the destination demands JPG, which is exactly what this tool is for.
Free and private. Everything runs on your own device, with no account and no uploads.
WebP is what most websites now serve, so an image saved from a browser often arrives as a .webp file that older photo viewers, Windows Photo Gallery, some email clients and many upload forms refuse to open. Converting it to JPG makes it universally readable. Because WebP is already compressed, the aim is to lose as little as possible in the second encoding, which is why the quality defaults high.
Sites serve WebP because it is 25–35% smaller than JPG at the same visual quality. When you right-click and save, you get the file the site served, not the original upload.
Slightly, because it is a second lossy encoding. At quality 90 or above the difference is not visible. Avoid converting back and forth repeatedly, since each round adds loss.
JPG holds a single image, so an animated WebP converts to its first frame only.
WebP compresses more efficiently than JPG, so the same image at the same quality needs more bytes as JPG. That is expected, and the price of compatibility.
Yes. Every current mobile browser can decode WebP, which is all this conversion needs.
- 1
Add WebP images
Drop the .webp files you saved. AVIF, PNG and GIF are accepted as well.
- 2
Keep quality high
The source is already lossy, so a second lossy pass should stay around 90 to avoid stacking artefacts.
- 3
Choose a fill colour
Transparent WebP images need a solid background in JPG. White is the default.
- 4
Convert and download
Save the JPG, or a ZIP if you converted several.
- ·If the WebP has a transparent background you want to keep, use WebP to PNG instead
- ·Check whether the site offers a "download original" option first: it avoids a second lossy encode entirely
- ·Quality 90–95 is the sensible range here; going lower mainly compounds artefacts
