About WebP
WebP is an image format released by Google in 2010. It supports lossy and lossless compression, transparency and animation.
Websites use it to serve images smaller than the equivalent JPEG or PNG; all current browsers display it.
Some older desktop software and many print services still do not accept WebP files.
Convert WebP to BMP online free, no account required — BMP is the Windows bitmap format, usually uncompressed.
Change WebP to BMP without losing quality — convert WebP to BMP free in your browser.
Why won't the program I've used for years open my WebP images? The format only spread after 2020, so older software and some desktop apps still lack support — converting to JPG or PNG keeps them usable everywhere.
About BMP
BMP is the device-independent bitmap format of Windows. It usually stores every pixel uncompressed.
Legacy Windows software, simple paint programs and embedded systems.
Without compression a BMP is many times larger than a PNG of the same image.
Why convert an image to BMP? Rarely on purpose: only legacy Windows software and some industrial tools expect uncompressed bitmaps.
What changes when you convert WebP to BMP
- The WebP picture is re-encoded as BMP at the default quality settings, so it looks close to the original but is not bit-identical.
- If the WebP is animated, only its first frame is converted to BMP.
