Why does Google serve images as WebP?

Google developed WebP and actively promotes its use for web performance. WebP files are 25–35% smaller than equivalent JPEG or PNG images, which speeds up web page loading times. Google Images, Google Search, and other Google products serve WebP to browsers that support it.

How do I download an image from Google Images as PNG instead of WebP?

You cannot force Google to deliver PNG instead of WebP. Download the WebP file as usual, then convert it to PNG using FixTools. This is the most reliable method.

Can I convert WebP files from Google Drive to PNG?

Yes. Download the WebP from Google Drive and upload it to FixTools to convert to PNG.

Can I convert Google Photos WebP to PNG?

Yes. Download the photo from Google Photos (it may download as WebP or JPG depending on the original). If it is WebP, convert it with FixTools.

Does FixTools work with any WebP file, not just Google WebP?

Yes. FixTools converts any WebP file regardless of its source. The WebP format is the same whether it came from Google, a website, an app, or any other source.
