WebP to PNG — open it anywhere

Downloaded a .webp that Office, an old editor or an upload form refuses? Drop it here and save a lossless PNG copy — transparency intact, processed entirely on your device.

How do I convert WebP to PNG?

Drop the .webp file into PixKit on this page. Your browser decodes it natively, PNG is pre-selected as the export format (a toast confirms it), and one click on Export downloads a lossless PNG copy with transparency preserved. Nothing is uploaded — the whole conversion happens locally on your device.

A private image toolkit, not just a watermark remover

Clean the Gemini sparkle, then finish the job — crop, resize, convert and adjust without uploading a single pixel.

Lossless watermark removal

Reverse-alpha math restores the true pixels under the Gemini logo — no blur, no AI guesswork.

Crop & resize

Crop to any aspect ratio with draggable handles, then resize to exact pixels or quick scales.

Convert & compress

Export to PNG, JPG or WebP with a quality slider and a live file-size estimate.

100% private

Every tool runs locally with undo/redo. Nothing is uploaded — it even works offline.

WebP to PNG in 3 steps

Your browser already knows how to read WebP — PixKit just saves it back out as PNG.

Drop the .webp file

Drag it from your downloads folder, paste it, or browse. Sets of files work too — they queue up in a filmstrip.

PNG is pre-selected

A toast announces "Ready — click Export to download as PNG." No quality decisions needed — PNG is lossless, so the copy is pixel-identical, and any transparency in the WebP is carried over untouched.

Download and use anywhere

Export a PNG that every program on earth can open — or a ZIP of PNGs if you dropped several. Expect files somewhat larger than the WebP; that's lossless storage doing its thing.

What people use it for

Inserting into Word or PowerPoint

Older Office versions and plenty of corporate templates choke on .webp. A PNG copy drops straight in.

Upload forms that reject WebP

CMS media libraries, print-on-demand services, marketplace listings and government portals often whitelist only PNG/JPG. Convert on the spot and move on.

Editing in an older desktop app

Legacy versions of Photoshop and various niche editors never learned WebP. PNG restores full compatibility with your existing toolchain.

Images saved from websites

Right-click-save increasingly hands you .webp whether you like it or not. Convert the batch to PNG so your assets folder stays usable everywhere.

Archiving with maximum compatibility

For files you'll need in ten years, PNG's universality is worth the extra bytes over WebP.

Frequently asked questions

Everything about escaping the .webp format.

Why do so many apps still refuse WebP files?+
WebP support landed in browsers years before it reached desktop software. Older Office and Photoshop versions, niche editors and conservative upload validators simply predate it — or whitelist only PNG/JPG on purpose. Converting to PNG sidesteps all of them at once.
Is quality lost converting WebP to PNG?+
No. PNG is lossless, so it stores the WebP's decoded pixels exactly — the copy is pixel-identical to what your browser displays. (Any artifacts the WebP itself already had are preserved too; conversion can't invent detail back.)
Does a transparent WebP stay transparent as PNG?+
Yes — both formats support full alpha channels, and PixKit copies it straight across. Transparent stickers, logos and cut-outs work without any flattening or white background sneaking in.
Why did the file get bigger after converting?+
WebP compresses harder than PNG, so unwrapping it into lossless PNG costs bytes — often 2–4× more. That's normal. If size matters, PixKit's optimizer can then shrink the PNG losslessly with OxiPNG.
Can I convert an animated WebP?+
Only the first frame — the editor works on still images, so an animated .webp comes out as a single-frame PNG. For keeping the motion, you'd want a GIF or video conversion instead (PixKit's GIF maker can help build animations, not extract them).
How do I convert every WebP in my downloads folder?+
Select them all and drop them in one go. They stack into the filmstrip, and one Export downloads the entire set as a ZIP of PNGs — no per-file clicking and no daily limit.
Do I need an internet connection to convert WebP to PNG?+
Only to load the page the first time. Both decoding and PNG encoding are native browser operations, so the conversion itself runs fully offline — PixKit also installs as a PWA if you want it always available.

When WebP won't open: the PNG fallback

WebP won the browser but never fully conquered the desktop. Every modern browser displays .webp happily — which is exactly why websites serve it, and why right-click-save keeps filling your downloads folder with it. But step outside the browser and the picture changes: older Microsoft Office builds, legacy Photoshop versions, embroidery and print software, many CMS uploaders and countless internal corporate tools still respond with "unsupported file type." When that happens you don't need new software — you need the same image in a container everything understands. That container is PNG — a quarter-century old, lossless, transparent-capable, and readable by effectively every piece of imaging software ever shipped.

A lossless round trip

Converting WebP to PNG in PixKit is lossless in the direction that matters: whatever pixels the WebP decodes to are written into the PNG exactly, with nothing re-compressed and nothing approximated. If the WebP carried an alpha channel — common for logos and stickers — the transparency arrives in the PNG untouched, since PNG's alpha support is just as complete. The PNG will usually be larger than the WebP it came from, because you're trading WebP's clever compression for PNG's universal, lossless storage. That trade is the entire point: you're buying compatibility with bytes, and if the bulk bothers you afterwards, an OxiPNG pass in PixKit's optimizer claws some of it back without touching a pixel.

Decoded by your own browser, saved by you

There's a neat irony here: the same browser engine that made WebP ubiquitous also decodes it for free. PixKit leans on that — your browser reads the .webp natively, the editor re-encodes it to PNG in the tab's memory, and the file downloads straight from your own machine. No upload, no server-side converter, no account, and it works offline once the page has loaded. Client screenshots, chat images and anything else sensitive never travel anywhere — worth remembering the next time an ad-funded "free webp converter" asks you to upload a contract screenshot first.

Fixing a whole folder at once

Because saved-from-the-web images tend to accumulate, PixKit handles them in bulk: drop the entire pile of .webp files, and they load into a filmstrip with a batch bar. A single Export writes every one out as PNG and bundles them into a ZIP. If any image needs a crop, a resize or a quick redaction before it goes into your document, the full editor is right there — one tool, one pass, done.
