Velacompress

WebP converter

Convert WebP to JPG without uploading a single file.

Images saved from the web often come down as .webp files — and plenty of apps and editors simply won't open them. Velacompress converts WebP to JPG right in your browser, so you get a file that works everywhere. No upload, and your files never leave your device.

Why your WebP files won't open

WebP is an image format Google built to make web images smaller and pages faster. Browsers handle it well, which is why so many sites now serve their images as WebP. The trouble starts the moment you take one out of the browser: you save an image, and it lands on your computer as a .webp file. Many desktop programs — older versions of Photoshop, some image viewers, Office, a range of print and design tools — still don't support it. You end up with an image you can see in your browser but can't use anywhere else. Converting it to JPG fixes that, because JPG opens in everything.

How it works

  1. 01

    Drop your WebP files

    Drag in the .webp files you saved, or a whole folder of them at once.

  2. 02

    Choose JPG

    JPG opens everywhere — the usual reason you're here. Or pick AVIF if you'd rather have a smaller file for the web.

  3. 03

    Get them back — nothing uploaded

    Every file is converted on your own machine and handed straight back. No server, no wait on your upload speed.

Nothing uploaded

Files are converted in the browser and never sent to a server. Verifiable in the network tab.

Convert in bulk

Turn a whole folder of saved .webp images into JPGs in one pass, not one at a time.

No limits, no subscription

No per-file cap on desktop and no recurring fee. The Pro license is a one-time $30.

WebP to JPG — questions

Why won’t my WebP file open?

WebP is an image format made by Google for the web. Browsers support it, which is why so many sites serve it — but a lot of desktop software does not. Older versions of Photoshop, some image viewers, Office, and various print and design tools still reject WebP. Converting to JPG gives you a file that opens in all of them.

Are my files uploaded to convert them?

No. Velacompress converts WebP in your browser using WebAssembly. Nothing is sent to a server — you can confirm it in your browser’s network tab. Your files never leave your device.

Can I convert several WebP files at once?

Yes. Drop a whole folder of .webp files and convert them in a single pass. On desktop there is no fixed limit on how many you can do.

Is JPG the only option?

JPG is the most compatible choice and the reason most people are here. If you would rather have a smaller, modern file for the web, you can convert to AVIF instead.
