Why "Save image as" gives you WebP
Most large sites now serve WebP because it is smaller than JPG at the same quality. Your browser saves exactly what the site sent, so the file ends in .webp.
The site chose it, not you
CDNs pick WebP for browsers that accept it. The same picture might be a JPG on an older device.
Browsers read it, other apps may not
Every current browser displays WebP, but older photo viewers, print services and some desktop apps still don't.
JPG is the safe fallback
Converting gives you the most widely accepted photo format, at a slightly larger size.
WebP and JPG side by side
Both are usually lossy photo formats. WebP adds features JPG never had.
| Property | WebP | JPG |
|---|---|---|
| Compression | Lossy (VP8) or lossless | Lossy only |
| Size at similar quality | Often 25–35% smaller | Baseline |
| Transparency | Yes, including in lossy mode | No |
| Animation | Yes | No |
| Colour depth | 8-bit | 8-bit |
| Metadata | EXIF and XMP chunks | EXIF, XMP, IPTC |
Size savings are typical figures reported for photos; your images will vary.
Transparency becomes a solid colour
JPG can't store transparency. Transparent areas are filled with white by default, or with a colour you pick.
Animated WebP becomes one frame
Only the first frame is converted. For moving images, keep the WebP or convert to GIF elsewhere.
When a JPG copy is worth it
Convert when a tool downstream refuses WebP. Leave the file alone when you only need to view it in a browser.
Printing and photo kiosks
Online print labs and in-store kiosks commonly list JPG as the accepted format.
Office documents and older software
Older versions of Word, PowerPoint and many image editors either reject WebP or show it without a preview.
Re-using images on your own site
Check the image licence first. If you publish it, WebP is usually the better web format; convert only for tools that need JPG.
WebP support outside the browser
Browser support is universal today. Desktop and mobile apps are where WebP still trips people up.
| App or platform | WebP | JPG |
|---|---|---|
| Chrome, Edge, Firefox | Yes | Yes |
| Safari | Yes, 14+ on macOS 11 Big Sur or later | Yes |
| Windows 10/11 Photos | Yes on current builds | Yes |
| macOS Preview | Yes on recent versions | Yes |
| Microsoft Office | Recent Microsoft 365 builds; older versions no | Yes |
| Print labs, kiosks, older CMS | Often no | Yes |
Support checked September 2026; older app versions vary.
Quality slider tip
The WebP is already compressed, so JPG quality 85–90 avoids adding visible blockiness on top.
Converted in your browser
The WebP is decoded by your browser and saved as JPG locally. Metadata is stripped on export and nothing is uploaded.
WebP to JPG: questions
How do I convert WebP to JPG without software?
Drop the .webp files on this page and pick a quality. Conversion runs in your browser, so there's nothing to install and nothing uploaded.
Why can't I open a WebP file on my computer?
Your photo viewer or editor may predate WebP support. Converting to JPG gives you a file any app can open.
Does WebP to JPG conversion lose quality?
Both formats are lossy, so there is a second compression step. At quality 85 or higher it is very hard to see; the JPG is usually a bit larger.
What happens to a transparent WebP logo?
JPG has no transparency, so the transparent pixels are filled with white or the colour you choose. For a transparent result, convert WebP to PNG instead.
Can I convert animated WebP stickers?
Only the first frame is saved as a JPG. The animation is not kept.
How many WebP files can I convert at once?
Up to 10 per batch on a free account, or 50 with a credit pack. The results download together as a ZIP.
