In 4 steps

How it works

  1. Set the quality first if you need something other than 85. The default suits most photos.

  2. If your images have transparent areas, pick the color that should fill them.

  3. Drag your WebP files into the box or click “Choose files”.

  4. Download each JPG on its own, or grab them all as a ZIP once two or more are done.

Why you end up with WebP files

Many websites serve their images as WebP because the files are small and load quickly. When you right-click a picture and choose “Save image as”, you often get a .webp file instead of the JPG you expected. It looks fine in the browser. The trouble starts when you try to use it somewhere else.

Older photo viewers and editors can’t open WebP. Job application portals, print shops and plenty of online forms only take JPG or PNG. Some apps let you paste a WebP image into a document and then fail when you export it. JPG works almost everywhere, from email clients to the photo kiosk at the drugstore.

What changes in the conversion

WebP supports transparency, and JPG doesn’t. The converter fills transparent areas with a solid color, white by default. A logo with a cut-out background will therefore sit on a white rectangle. To keep the transparency, switch to “Convert WebP to PNG” under “Other conversions”.

JPG uses lossy compression. At the default quality of 85, photos usually look the same as the original WebP. Raising the quality makes the file bigger. It can’t bring back detail that the WebP compression already threw away.

Common situations

  • A product photo from an online store needs to go into a slide deck, and your presentation software won’t take WebP.
  • The job portal you’re applying through wants your headshot as a JPG.
  • A photo book service rejects .webp files during upload.
  • You’re saving images from a blog post and want to be sure you can still open them in ten years.

Check the usage rights before reusing images from other sites. Converting a file doesn’t change who owns it.

Animated WebP files are rejected. A JPG holds a single frame, so all you’d get is the first frame of the animation.

Formats and limits

Good to know

  • This page converts WebP to JPG. It also accepts JPG, PNG and HEIC files, and the result is always a JPG.
  • The converter detects the format from the file's contents. A JPG that was saved with a .webp extension still converts correctly.
  • Transparent pixels are filled with the background color you choose. White is the default.
  • JPG quality starts at 85 and can be set anywhere from 1 to 100.
  • If two files share a name, the converter numbers the output, for example “photo (2).jpg”.
  • EXIF data and location tags from the WebP are not copied to the JPG. Colors are converted to sRGB, the standard color space for screens and the web.
  • Each image can have up to 50 megapixels, or up to 16 megapixels on iPhone and iPad. Larger images are rejected with a notice.
  • All converted images together can be up to 512 MB, or up to 192 MB on iPhone and iPad. The same limit applies to the ZIP file.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Missing your question? Get in touch

Why can't I open a WebP image I saved?

The app you're using doesn't support WebP. This mostly affects older software. Once converted to JPG, the image opens in practically any program.

Why is my JPG bigger than the original WebP?

WebP compresses more efficiently than JPG, so a JPG of the same visual quality usually takes more space. If file size matters, lower the quality to around 75 and check the result.

Does converting reduce image quality?

Slightly. JPG is a lossy format, but at quality 85 the difference is hard to spot in photos. Any detail the WebP had already lost stays lost.

Can I convert a whole batch of WebP files?

Yes. Select several files in the file dialog or drag them in together. They're converted one after another, and when all are finished you can download them individually or as one ZIP.
