Before you convert
- Keep a backup of your original file before converting so you can roll back if needed.
- Decide on a background color for transparent areas—JPG fills them with solid color during conversion.
- Review known pain points: Image editing support is improving but still less universal than JPEG/PNG. Adjust your source file accordingly.
Quality tips
- Use the resize controls to match the pixel dimensions your project actually needs.
- Preview the background fill—set it to white, black, or brand colors so transparent elements look intentional.
- Start with a high-quality setting (85–90%) and only reduce it if file size targets demand it.
- Download the result immediately and open it in the target application to verify everything matches expectations.

Frequently asked questions
Does converting WebP to JPG reduce quality?
Yes, JPG uses lossy compression. Start with the highest quality setting available and compare the converted file against your original. If you need a perfect copy, keep the WebP source as an archive.
What happens to transparent pixels when I move from WebP to JPG?
Because JPG does not store transparency, the converter applies a solid background. Choose the background color that matches your design system or add a new layer in an editor before uploading.
Is there a file size limit for converting WebP?
Yes—uploads up to 150 MB convert reliably in the browser. For larger assets, split them into smaller segments first so the process stays responsive.
