WebP to JPG/PNG Converter (WhatsApp photos)
If you saved an image from WhatsApp Web or forwarded a sticker and ended up with a .webp file that won't open in Windows, Photoshop or a print shop, this tool converts it to JPG or PNG instantly, entirely in your browser. Upload the file and download the result right away - nothing uploaded to a server, no waiting, no settings to figure out.

If it's a sticker or a logo with a transparent background, use PNG - JPG fills transparency with white.
Why do WhatsApp photos save as .webp?
When you open an image in WhatsApp Web and save it with right-click → "Save image as", your browser downloads it in the format WhatsApp serves it in internally: WebP, a modern image format Google built to be smaller than JPEG or PNG at similar quality. Stickers almost always travel in this format too.
The catch is that WebP still isn't 100% compatible everywhere: older Windows versions, some print shops, forms that require ".jpg" or ".png", and older editing software won't open it directly. You can read more about the WebP format on MDN.
Frequently asked questions
Why can't I open the photo someone sent me on WhatsApp?
If you saved it from WhatsApp Web via right-click, it most likely downloaded as .webp instead of .jpg. It isn't corrupted - the program you're trying to open it with (older Windows Photos, some web forms, certain print shops) just doesn't support that format yet. Convert it here and it'll open fine.
Does this work for WhatsApp stickers too?
Yes. WhatsApp stickers are .webp files with a transparent background. Upload them here and download the PNG to keep the transparency, or the JPG if a white background is fine.
Do I lose quality converting WebP to JPG?
Very little. The conversion re-encodes the same pixels at a high quality setting (roughly JPEG 92%), so the result looks practically identical to the original.
What if I need to keep the transparent background?
Choose PNG instead of JPG. JPG doesn't support transparency and fills those areas with white; PNG keeps the alpha channel intact.
Is my image uploaded to a server?
No. Everything happens in your browser using the HTML5 canvas element. The image never leaves your computer, and it isn't saved anywhere - it's gone as soon as you close or refresh this tab.
Does it work on any browser or phone?
Yes, it works on any modern browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari) on both desktop and mobile, since they all support reading WebP natively and use canvas to convert it.
