Recommended Method
Use Photoshop 23.2 or later to open, edit and save WebP files natively. For Photoshop 23.1 or earlier, install the WebPShop plug-in. When saving, choose lossless compression when preserving image quality is important.
Compatibility Notes
Photoshop 23.2 and later provide native WebP support for opening, creating, editing and saving files. WebP supports transparency and both lossless and lossy compression. WebP files do not preserve Photoshop-style editable layers or fonts as document structure, and lossy WebP export can reduce image quality.
