What is WebP?
WebP is Google's modern image format for the web. It supports lossy and lossless compression, transparency and animation, and usually produces smaller files than JPG or PNG. All current browsers show it, but some older programs and apps cannot open it.
What is GIF?
GIF is the classic format for short animations and memes. It plays automatically and loops in every browser and chat app, but it is limited to 256 colours per frame and stores video very inefficiently, so animated GIFs are often many times larger than the same clip as MP4.
Tips for converting WebP to GIF
- Transparent backgrounds are only kept in formats that support them (PNG, WebP, AVIF); JPG fills them with white.
- For photos, lossy formats keep files small; for logos, screenshots and text, lossless PNG stays sharper.
- Converting an already compressed WebP does not add detail — start from the highest-quality original you have.
- If the image is for a website, a modern format such as WebP or AVIF usually loads faster than GIF.
