Most software will not recognize these files, which means you must go through extra steps to convert WEBP files and HEIC files into usable formats. In this guide, we will explain to you how you can do this with each file type. It’s quite simple to convert these file types, so follow the steps below and you should be finished within a couple of minutes.
How to Convert WEBP Files
Let’s first look at how we can convert WEBP files into any other image file type so that you can use them in Photoshop, GIMP, or any other program that deals with photos. First, make sure you have the .webp file downloaded on your computer. Next, visit ezgif.com and click the WebP option on the toolbar at the far right. From here, you have three options to convert WEBP files. As shown above, you can choose to convert WEBP to JPG, PNG, or GIF. Choose whichever image format is best suited for you. Next, click Choose file and browse to the WEBP file you’d like to convert. Once you have found it, double click it. After that, click Upload! From here, you have a number of options. You can crop it, rotate the image, resize it, add text, or change file format. Alternatively, you can click convert to … once you are ready to save the image in the new file format. Scroll down, and then click Save on the image below the converted … image box. After that, your newly converted file will download to your default downloads folder. That’s all there is to it. You can repeat this process for any other WEBP files that you would like to convert.
