Convert WebP to JPG

You saved an image from a website and got a .webp that half your software refuses to open. Converting to JPG ends that: it is the format everything has read for thirty years.

How it works

An animation of this converter at work: three HEIC files arrive as numbered frames, convert one after another, and each is marked with a red corner bracket when its JPG is ready to save.
Your files appear as frames and convert one at a time. Nothing is sent anywhere — open your browser’s network tab and watch.

Why the image you saved is a WebP

Websites serve WebP because it is smaller, and smaller images make pages load faster. Chrome, Edge and Firefox all display it happily, so from the site's point of view nothing is wrong. The trouble starts the moment the file leaves the browser: older photo viewers, some desktop editors, print shops and plenty of upload forms have never been taught to read it.

Converting to JPG trades a little file size for a file that opens without an argument. If the picture is going to a person, a printer, or a form, that is almost always the trade you want.

This page loads nothing extra

Your browser already knows how to read WebP — it has been displaying them to you all along. So unlike the HEIC converters here, this page has no decoder to download. It converts using what the browser already has, which is why it starts working the instant you drop a file in.

About quality

Both WebP and JPG are lossy, so the file you started with had already discarded some data, and converting discards a little more. At the default of 88 that second pass is not visible at normal viewing size. Raise it toward 100 if the image is going to be printed or edited further. If the original had a transparent background, use PNG instead — JPG cannot store transparency and will fill it with white.

Questions

Is my image uploaded anywhere?

No. The conversion runs on your own machine using the image support your browser already has. There is no upload endpoint and no storage. Open your browser’s network tab while converting and you will see no request carrying your file.

Will I lose quality?

A little, because both formats are lossy. The quality slider controls how much of a second pass you accept. At the default of 88 the difference is not visible at normal viewing size for most images.

What happens to a transparent background?

JPG cannot store transparency, so a transparent area becomes solid white. If the image has a cut-out background, convert it to PNG instead, which keeps the alpha channel intact.

Can I convert a whole folder at once?

Yes. Select or drop as many files as you like; they are processed one after another and can be saved together as a single .zip.
