Usually, when we need to view an image in WEBP format, the programs we have installed on our computer are not useful, and we turn to installing other platforms. That is why, at NeoTeo, we are going to present five options for viewing WEBP images. These alternatives also offer editing options such as resizing images, converting WEBP images, rotating images, getting a preview of the WEBP image through the context menu, adding multiple WEBP images, and so on. All options are free and come for the most popular operating systems.
Google Chrome
We'll start with Google Chrome, because the WEBP image format is a Google development and the browser comes with all the features to view and edit WEBP images. Without a doubt, the browser is one of the simplest options to use, and it also comes with the ability to save WEBP images as JPG or PNG.
FastPreview Viewer
FastPreview Viewer is a WEBP image viewer that comes with several interesting options: first, its interface adjusts to the image size, and via the context menu you can preview how your editing is going.
IrfanView
IrfanView is one of the most popular options for viewing WEBP images. Its only drawback is that you need to install a plugin to view images in that format. Once the extension is installed, IrfanView is one of the best options you can find on the market for viewing WEBP images. Some of the features are: resizing WEBP images, converting WEBP images, rotating WEBP images, etc.
Opera Browser
Like Google Chrome, the Opera browser also supports viewing WEBP images. But what stands out about Opera is viewing WEBP images offline.
Paint.NET image editor
If we talk about free image editors, Paint.NET image editor cannot be missing. This powerful editor is also compatible with WEBP images. One of its standout features is the ability to open multiple WEBP images from its interface. But to view images with Paint.NET image editor, you need to install the WebPFiletype extension. Its installation is simple: after extracting the plugin folder, copy the three DLL files and paste them into the FileTypes folder in the Paint.NET installation directory. And that's it!
We hope that with the five free options for viewing WEBP images, you can see the photos or images in this format that you have stored on your computer.
