About WebM
WebM is an open, royalty-free video format developed by Google and based on the Matroska container. It holds VP8, VP9 or AV1 video with Vorbis or Opus audio.
It is made for the web: all major browsers play it in the HTML video element, and it is common for screen recordings and short clips.
WebM allows only its own small set of codecs, so H.264 video or AAC audio has to be re-encoded to fit.
Convert WebM to PNG online free, no account required — PNG is a lossless image format with transparency.
Change WebM to PNG without losing quality — convert WebM to PNG free in your browser.
Why can't I upload my WebM video to Instagram or TikTok? Social apps almost always demand MP4, so a WebM made for the web needs converting before it will upload.
About PNG
PNG (Portable Network Graphics) is a lossless image format created in 1996 as a free replacement for GIF. It supports full colour and an alpha channel for transparency.
Screenshots, logos, icons, diagrams and any image with text or sharp edges.
For photos a PNG is several times larger than a JPEG, and plain PNG has no animation (that is APNG).
Why convert an image to PNG? When sharp lines, text and transparency matter more than file size: screenshots and logos stay pixel-perfect.
