Image Converter
A free WebP to PNG converter — and a full image converter between PNG, JPG, WebP, AVIF, and HEIC. Everything runs in your browser with batch ZIP export. No upload, no file limit, no signup.
How this WebP to PNG converter works
Drop one or more images and the tool decodes each file in the browser, redraws it onto an HTML canvas, and re-encodes it in your chosen format. For a WebP to PNG conversion, the decoded pixels are written straight to a lossless PNG with transparency preserved. None of your files ever leave your device.
PNG, JPG, and WebP encode instantly using the browser's native
canvas.toBlob encoder. AVIF output uses a small in-browser
WASM encoder that downloads once on first use, then runs offline. HEIC and
HEIF input uses a separate WASM decoder, loaded only when you drop an iPhone
photo, so the default path stays fast and dependency-free.
The formats this converter supports
Input: WebP, PNG, JPG, AVIF, HEIC, HEIF, GIF, and BMP — anything the browser or the bundled WASM decoder can read. Output: PNG, JPG, WebP, and AVIF. That covers every common conversion, including WebP to PNG, WebP to JPG, PNG to WebP, HEIC to JPG, and PNG to AVIF.
The quality slider applies to the lossy outputs — JPG, WebP, and AVIF — and maps directly to the encoder's quality value from 5 to 100. PNG is lossless, so its slider is disabled; it only re-rasterizes the image at full fidelity.
Why convert WebP to PNG (and back)
WebP is built for the web: it is small and loads fast, which is why so many sites and AI image tools export it. But some editors, slide decks, and older apps still refuse to open WebP. Converting WebP to PNG gives you a file that opens everywhere and keeps full transparency for logos and cut-outs.
The reverse is just as useful. Converting PNG to WebP or AVIF before you publish can cut a hero image's weight by 60–80% with no visible quality loss. Smaller images improve your Largest Contentful Paint and save mobile data, which is why Google's web.dev guidance recommends modern formats for production.
HEIC: opening iPhone photos anywhere
iPhones save photos as HEIC by default, which Windows and many web tools cannot open without a plugin. Drop the HEIC file here and export to JPG or PNG to get a file that works on every device. The decode happens locally, so your personal photos are never uploaded to a stranger's server.
Private by design: why no upload matters
Most popular online converters upload your image to their servers, apply a file-size cap, and queue your job behind everyone else's. This tool does the opposite. The work happens on your own CPU, so there is no upload, no cap, and no privacy trade-off for client work, screenshots, or unreleased assets.
Because it is browser-side, you can convert a folder of images on a plane, on a locked-down corporate network, or anywhere offline once the page has loaded. The batch button bundles every result into a single ZIP, built in your browser with no round-trip.
Convert, then create at scale in Playcut
This converter is the file-prep step. When you need to produce the visuals in the first place, Playcut routes prompts across Imagen, Veo, Gemini, and more from one chat surface, with brand kits and reusable AI actors. Generate a batch of stills with the AI image generator, export them, then convert here to the exact format your destination needs.

WebP to PNG converter FAQ
How do I convert WebP to PNG for free?
Drop your WebP file into the converter above, pick PNG as the output format, and download the result. Everything runs in your browser with the Canvas API — no upload, no signup, no file-size cap. PNG keeps full transparency and is lossless, so it opens in any editor or operating system.
Is this image converter really free with no upload?
Yes. The converter decodes, re-encodes, and saves every file on your own device. Nothing is sent to a server, so there is no upload, no queue, and no privacy trade-off for client work or unreleased assets. Closing the tab erases everything.
Can I convert HEIC photos from my iPhone?
Yes. Drop a .heic or .heif file and the converter loads a small in-browser WASM decoder (about 2MB, once) to read it, then exports to PNG, JPG, WebP, or AVIF. PNG or JPG is the safest choice for sharing iPhone photos with people on Windows or older software.
Which output format should I choose?
Choose PNG for transparency and lossless graphics, JPG for photos that need universal support, WebP for the best balance of small size and broad browser support, and AVIF for the smallest possible file at the same quality. WebP and AVIF cut page weight the most.
Can I convert multiple images at once?
Yes. Drop several images and the same output format and quality apply to all of them. Download each one individually, or use the batch button to get every converted file in a single ZIP archive built in your browser.
