Convert WebP to BMP
Drop WebP files and download them as BMP. WebP can hold transparency and BMP cannot, so transparent areas are filled with the background colour you choose (white by default). Conversion runs on your device, so large batches finish in seconds and nothing is uploaded.
How to use the WebP to BMP
- Drop or paste your WebP files (up to 200).
- No settings needed: the output is lossless.
- Click Convert to BMP.
- Download each file or all as a ZIP.
Why convert WebP to BMP?
WebP, developed by Google, stores photos 25–35% smaller than JPEG at equal quality and also supports lossless mode, transparency and animation. All current browsers open it; some desktop apps and older CMS uploaders still refuse it.
BMP is the uncompressed Windows bitmap format. Files are very large (3 bytes per pixel) but trivially simple, which is why some legacy software, embedded systems and wallpaper settings still require it.
What changes in the conversion
BMP is lossless, so nothing further is lost in the conversion, but the WebP compression already applied cannot be undone; the BMP file will be much larger without being sharper. WebP can hold transparency and BMP cannot, so transparent areas are filled with the background colour you choose (white by default). Animated WebP files are converted to a still image of the first frame.

| Typical size | smaller than JPG and PNG | very large |
| Opens in | all modern browsers, most modern apps | Windows and most editors |
How it works on your device
Your browser decodes the WebP file into raw pixels, draws them onto a canvas and asks its built-in encoder to write BMP. Nothing is sent to a server, which is why there is no file-size limit beyond your device's memory and no queue.

Frequently asked questions
Does converting WebP to BMP lose quality?
BMP is lossless, so nothing further is lost in the conversion, but the WebP compression already applied cannot be undone; the BMP file will be much larger without being sharper..
Is there a limit on file size or number of files?
Up to 200 files per batch and no fixed size limit; processing happens in your browser.
Are my images uploaded?
No. The conversion runs on your device and works offline after the page loads.
What happens to transparent areas?
They are filled with the background colour you pick (white by default), because BMP has no transparency.
