Converting WebP to GIF: what to know
WebP is converted to GIF so that an animation can be sent where only GIF is accepted: older messengers, email, forums and programs.
The whole animation is carried over: every frame and its duration. But GIF holds at most 256 colors, so smooth gradients and photo-like animations can become grainy, and the file is often larger than the WebP.
WebP or GIF: which to choose?
WebP
WebP is a modern Google format for the web: it supports lossy and lossless compression, transparency and animation.
Best for images on websites: one format replaces JPG, PNG and GIF and makes pages load faster.
GIF (Graphics Interchange Format)
GIF is the classic format for short animations, limited to 256 colours.
Best for short looping animations, stickers and simple graphics.
What happens when converting WebP to GIF
Animation is preserved: all frames and their timing are transferred to GIF.
GIF stores the image without loss: the conversion adds no artifacts, but details already lost in WebP compression will not come back, and the file is usually larger.
EXIF metadata, including GPS location, is not copied, and the photo orientation is applied to the pixels.
WebP files up to 256 MB are supported; the actual limit also depends on the free memory of your device.
