Why convert WebP to JPG?
WebP is Google's image format, introduced in 2010 and now the default for much of the web — Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Edge all display it, and tools like Squoosh, cwebp and most CDN pipelines export it. WebP files are typically 25–35% smaller than a comparable JPEG, which is why it spread so fast.
The friction runs the other way: a pile of WebP downloads from the web won't open in older desktop software — Photoshop before 23.2, many Microsoft Office versions, older image viewers — and some upload forms, print shops and client workflows still demand a JPG or PNG.
ShiftRaw converts WebP to JPG entirely in your browser. Modern browsers decode WebP natively, so conversion is instant, pixel-accurate and completely private.
Best for: JPG is the universal choice: every device, browser, app and platform displays it, and at 90%+ quality the compression is invisible. A 45-megapixel RAW frame converts to a 5–10 MB JPG that uploads anywhere. For web and client delivery it remains the sensible default — start here unless you specifically need transparency (PNG) or the smallest possible files (WebP).
