User Reviews
Users find the add-on convenient for quickly saving images in different formats, boosting workflow efficiency. However, it frequently fails to truly convert (renaming extensions instead), exhibits inconsistent/broken behavior across devices, offers no quality or save-location controls, and has some UI quirks. Overall sentiment is mixed: useful when it works, but reliability and control issues limit its practicality for regular use. Pros
- Converts images to a different format directly from the context menu (PNG/JPG/WebP) rather than just renaming extensions.
- Saves time and streamlines workflow by avoiding manual formatting changes.
- Easy right-click/context menu to pick the desired target format.
- Useful for avoiding WebP/JPEG compatibility issues in some programs.
- Supports multiple target formats, offering flexibility in how images are saved.
Cons
- Often does not actually convert the image; it only changes the file extension, providing no real format benefits.
- Inconsistent or broken behavior across devices and updates (default format not sticking; issues reappearing over time).
- Quality issues and no option to control output quality (e.g., lower-quality JPEGs; no quality setting).
- No control over save location or file name (files save to an unknown location; prompts for destination are missing).
- UI/UX issues (icon visibility on light themes; minor naming/placement tweaks); some feature requests (e.g., copy to clipboard) indicate missing functionality.

Is Save image as Type Safe?
Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
Save image as Type requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
