Why websites use WebP

WebP files are typically 25-35% smaller than JPG at the same quality, so pages load faster. Most big sites – Google, shops, news sites – serve WebP to modern browsers automatically.

Fix 1: convert the file

Drop the .webp files into WebP to JPG (or WebP to PNG to keep transparency) and download them. It works in bulk and nothing is uploaded.

Fix 2: open it anyway

Windows Photos, macOS Preview, Chrome, Edge, Paint and recent Photoshop versions all open WebP. If an old app can't, convert it.

Fix 3: get the original format

Some sites serve JPG if you open the image in a new tab and change .webp to .jpg in the address, but this only works when the site stores both versions.
