Save webP as PNG or JPEG is a popular Firefox add-on praised for its simple right-click conversion of webP images maintaining quality and offering format choice and hotkeys. Users appreciate its efficiency and utility in dealing with webP format. However, common issues include occasional unresponsiveness, lack of custom folder saving, no animated webP to GIF conversion, and somewhat confusing settings.
