Developed by Google, the WEBP image format is designed to provide superior compression compared to older formats like JPEG and PNG. It is pronounced "weppy".
WEBP are higly effificient for web images and it reduces page-load times on websites (Google reports 30%+ savings when converting JPEG/PNG libraries to WebP). Also single format can replace JPEG, PNG, and animated GIF in most cases.
We have designed this image converter tool easy-to-use. Just upload you WEBP image file and hit Convert. Within a second, your PNG converted image is ready to download.
