WebP to BMP Converter

Turn WebP files into BMP in a couple of clicks. WebP is a modern web format, ~30% smaller than JPG at similar quality; BMP is an uncompressed raster bitmap. The conversion is lossless — every pixel, sample or byte in the source is preserved.

How to use it

  1. 1

    Add your WebP files

    Drag them onto the drop area, choose them from your device, or paste them from your clipboard. You can queue several at once. Nothing is sent anywhere — the file stays on this device.

  2. 2

    Adjust the settings if you want to

    The defaults suit most people. Open Advanced to control metadata removal.

  3. 3

    Convert and download

    Press Convert. Everything happens on your own device — nothing is uploaded. Download files one by one, or grab them all as a ZIP.

Privacy, in plain words

Is it safe? Your WebP file is not uploaded anywhere

What “uploaded” normally means. On most online converters, pressing the button copies your file across the internet onto a computer owned by that website. That copy is what the word “upload” means, and it is the part nobody explains.

What happens instead. This site does not do it. There is no server here that receives files, so your WebP file is read, converted and handed back by the browser you are using right now. It never travels — so there is no copy to store, read, leak or hand over.

Check it yourself in ten seconds

Turn off your Wi-Fi after this page has loaded, then convert a file anyway. It still works, because everything needed is already on your device.

The longer explanation of how this works, and the full detail of what is and is not stored on the privacy page.

Why this matters more than it sounds

Photographs carry more than what is in the frame — most also carry the time, the device and often the GPS coordinates where they were taken. It matters more than it sounds, because of what images usually are:

Screenshots of private messages

conversations that included other people

Photos of ID cards and licences

the usual way people send identity documents

Screenshots of bank transfers

account details, and proof of what you paid whom

Medical scans and photographs

X-rays, results, images of a condition

A file that is never sent cannot be kept, leaked, subpoenaed or used to train anything. That is a property of how this works, not a promise about how carefully it is run.

WebP and BMP explained

WebP is a Google-developed format that offers both lossy and lossless modes, transparency, and animation in one container. In its lossy mode it typically produces files around 25–35% smaller than JPEG at comparable visual quality.

BMP stores pixels essentially raw, with little or no compression. A 1920×1080 BMP is around 6 MB regardless of what the picture contains, because every pixel takes the same space whether it is part of a gradient or a flat colour.

Where WebP files come from
Modern websites, and increasingly the default export from web-focused design tools.
Where BMP is used
Legacy Windows software, some scientific and industrial imaging tools.

WebP vs BMP

The two formats solve different problems, which is why converting between them involves trade-offs rather than a straight upgrade.

WebP is stronger at

BMP is stronger at
Trivially simple to read and write. No compression artefacts whatsoever. Still readable by very old software.

Why convert WebP to BMP?

People make this switch when they run into the limits of WebP: the file needs to be opened by arbitrary desktop software, emailed to non-technical recipients, or sent to a print shop. BMP is the better fit when a legacy application specifically requires it.

Be aware of the size trade-off: BMP is uncompressed, so expect the converted file to be considerably larger than the WebP you started with.

WebP limitations that prompt the switch
Desktop applications and older software often cannot open it. Some photo printing services and older phones reject it. Lossy WebP, like JPEG, degrades on re-save.
What you give up
Enormous files. No standard support for transparency in most variants.

Does converting WebP to BMP reduce quality?

Both formats store the content without discarding data, so this conversion preserves it exactly. The file size may change because the two formats compress differently, but the content itself is unaffected.

Good to know

WebP to BMP Converter — questions

How do I convert WebP to BMP?

Drop your WebP file onto the area above, then press Convert. The BMP file saves straight to your device. You do not need an account, and there is no watermark.

Is it safe to convert WebP files here — are they uploaded to a server?

No, nothing is uploaded. On most online converters, pressing the button copies your file across the internet onto a computer owned by that website; it is converted there and sent back. That copy is what "upload" means, and it is the part that puts your file out of your control. This site does not do it. Your WebP file is read and converted by the browser you are using right now and never leaves this device, so there is no copy for anyone to store, read or hand over. You can prove it: turn off your Wi-Fi after this page loads and the conversion still works.

Can I convert confidential WebP files, like bank statements or contracts?

Yes, and that is the case this site was built for. Because the file never leaves your device, a confidential document is no more exposed than it is sitting in your own folder — there is no transfer, no copy on someone else's hardware, no retention period to read about and no staff with access. Nothing is logged about the file either: not its name, not its size, not its contents. The one thing worth saying plainly is that this protects the file in transit and at rest on our side, not from anything already on your own computer.

What should I know before converting WebP to BMP?

Converting WebP to BMP cannot restore detail that the original encoder already discarded. It preserves exactly what is there today — nothing more.

Does converting to BMP reduce quality?

No. BMP is a lossless format, so the conversion preserves exactly what is in your WebP file. Note that it cannot recover detail that was already discarded when the WebP was first created — a lossless container does not undo earlier compression.

How large a file can I convert?

Up to 120 MB per file for this conversion. Because the work happens in your browser, the practical limit is your device's memory — larger files work on a desktop with plenty of RAM and may fail on an older phone.

Can I convert several files at once?

Yes. Add as many as you like and press Convert All. Each file is processed independently, so one failure does not stop the rest, and you can download everything together as a ZIP.

Can I use this on my phone?

Yes. FileTools360 works in mobile browsers on iOS and Android, including choosing files straight from your camera roll. Very large images may run out of memory on a phone — those are better converted on a laptop.
