A PRACTICAL GUIDE
WebP and GIF: choose the right result
A WEBP file may not be accepted by the app or upload form you need. WebP to GIF creates a separate GIF copy while leaving your original file untouched.
| Property | WebP | GIF |
|---|---|---|
| What it stores | A raster image; source files may also contain animation | An indexed-color image; this export is a still |
| Compression | Lossy or lossless; this export uses the browser encoder | A limited palette with up to 256 colors |
| Transparency | Supports transparency | Limited transparency; our GIF output uses a white background |
| Typical use | Web images and smaller image delivery | Simple graphics; this tool does not export animation |
