Why convert DDS to PSD?

DDS served its purpose well, but modern workflows increasingly favor PSD for Photoshop layered design files. The shift is worth making. This conversion processes your files entirely in your browser using WebAssembly – no upload, no server, no privacy concerns. Perfect for sensitive or large batches. The conversion itself takes seconds — the benefits last much longer.

This format requires a WebAssembly decoder — allow a moment for library loading
