About Save image as Type
Save image as Type — Save Any Web Image as PNG, JPG, or WebP — Instantly, Privately, Locally
▶ TAKE CONTROL OF HOW YOU SAVE IMAGES FROM THE WEB
Tired of downloading images in the wrong format? Frustrated by websites forcing WebP files on you when you need a PNG or JPG? Fed up
with uploading your private images to shady online converters just to change a file format?
Save image as Type puts you back in control. Right-click any image on any webpage and save it instantly as PNG, JPG, or WebP —
converted on the spot, right inside your browser. No uploads. No servers. No nonsense.

▶ KEY FEATURES
• Right-click context menu integration — A clean submenu appears whenever you right-click an image: "Save as PNG", "Save as JPG",
"Save as WebP". Fast, familiar, frictionless.
• True client-side conversion — Images are converted using the browser's own Canvas API. The conversion happens entirely inside your
browser tab. Your images never leave your device.
• Set your default format — Open the extension popup and pick your preferred format once. From then on, a single right-click is all
you need — your chosen format is always ready to go.
• Custom download subfolder — Specify a subfolder name (for example "Saved Images" or "Design Assets") and every image you save lands
neatly in that folder inside your Downloads directory. No more hunting through a cluttered Downloads folder.
• Works on any image, on any webpage — Product photos, blog illustrations, social media images, banners, WebP thumbnails — if you can
see it, you can save it in the format you want.
• Works 100% offline — No internet connection required for the conversion. Once the extension is installed, it works anywhere,
anytime.
• Lightweight and fast — No background processes, no memory bloat. The extension does nothing until you actually right-click an
image. Zero idle resource usage.
• No account, no sign-up, no setup — Install and go. There is nothing to configure beyond your optional format preference and
subfolder name.
