Works great!! Just what I was looking for.
This is such a simple solution for such an annoying problem. If you work with images (presentations for work, images in designing softwares etc.) and have been facing the pain of dealing with saving images in WEBP or AVIF and other annoying formats which most of the softwares and apps do not recognize then this is a simple but AMAZING solution. 10/10
Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about Save Image As Type.
How do I install Save Image As Type?
Visit the Chrome Web Store, Firefox Add-ons, or Edge Add-ons page and click Install. The extension adds a right-click context menu to every image on the web.
How does the image conversion work?
When you right-click an image and select a format, the extension downloads the image and converts it using the browser's built-in Canvas API. The conversion happens entirely on your device — no external servers are involved.
What formats can I convert to?
You can save images as JPG, PNG, WebP, or AVIF. Each format has different strengths: JPG for photos, PNG for lossless/transparency, WebP for smaller files, and AVIF for next-gen compression.
Is this the same as the original Save Image As Type extension?
No. The original extension (1M+ users) was removed from the Chrome Web Store in March 2026 after it was found to be injecting affiliate links into web pages. This is a completely new extension built from scratch with privacy as the top priority.
Does the extension collect my data?
Never your images, URLs, browsing history, or personal information — image conversion is 100% local. We do send anonymous usage events (which formats are used, errors) to Google Analytics to improve the extension, tied only to a random anonymous ID. You can turn analytics off anytime in Settings → Privacy.
Can I adjust the image quality?
Yes. For JPG, WebP, and AVIF formats, you can adjust the compression quality in the extension's options page. PNG is always lossless and doesn't have a quality setting.
Does it work with SVG images?
Yes. SVG images are rasterized at their natural dimensions (or viewBox size) and then converted to your chosen format.
What about animated GIFs?
The extension captures the first frame of animated GIFs and converts it to your chosen format. Full animation preservation is not supported.
