Save any web image as JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP, AVIF, or JPEG XL
Chrome often saves images as WebP or AVIF files that won't open everywhere. This free extension is a save-image-as-type tool: right-click any image, then save it as JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP, AVIF, or JPEG XL. Animated WebP images can be saved as GIFs that play anywhere.
How to save an image in another format
- Install it from the Chrome Web Store .
- Right-click any image on any webpage.
- Choose Convert and Save Image.
- Pick Save as JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP, AVIF, or JPEG XL.
Supported formats
| Format | Best for |
|---|---|
| JPEG / JPG | Smallest files for photos; lossy, no transparency. Best for email, docs, and apps that reject modern formats. |
| PNG | Lossless with transparency. Best when you need exact pixels or an alpha channel. |
| GIF | Universal animation support, including animated WebP sources. 256 colors, larger files. |
| WebP | Modern lossy or lossless with transparency. Smaller than JPEG and PNG in most cases. |
| AVIF | Smallest still-image compression with transparency and HDR. Newer app support. |
| JPEG XL | Next-generation format; lossless JPEG recompression is reversible. Growing browser support. |

Frequently asked questions
Is it free?
Yes. The extension is free and does not require an account.
Does it support animated WebP?
Yes. Animated WebP images can be saved as GIF so they play in apps that still expect a GIF. Animated conversions can be slower than static ones.
Do images leave my computer?
Most conversions run locally on your device. GIF and some animated conversions are processed by PicPerf's converter and are not stored.
How is this different from the convert tools?
The convert tools are one-file uploads for single images. The extension works with right-click on any image, on any site, without uploading each file by hand.
I run a website that serves WebP or AVIF. Can this help?
The extension saves images one at a time. To serve smaller images automatically, use PicPerf Images or Turbulence instead — they convert, resize, and cache for every visitor with no manual work.
