What happens when you convert WebP to GIF
WebP is Google's modern web format — smaller than JPG or PNG at comparable quality, with support for both transparency and animation. GIF is the legacy animation format: a 256-colour palette and 1-bit transparency, but it plays anywhere, including places that still refuse video.
- Transparent pixels stay transparent — the alpha channel is carried across.
- Animations keep every frame, along with their timing.
- GIF is lossless, so the output matches the decoded source pixel for pixel.
- EXIF metadata, including GPS coordinates, is dropped. Orientation is applied first, so the image stays the right way up.
- The file is converted in memory and streamed straight back — nothing is written to disk or saved to an account.
Frequently asked questions
Is converting WebP to GIF free?+
Yes — free, no watermark, and no account required. Signing in raises the per-file size limit and is the only reason you would need one.
Do you store the images I convert?+
No. Conversion happens in memory during the request and the result is streamed back to your browser. The file never touches our disks or database, and there is nothing to delete afterwards.
Will I lose quality converting to GIF?+
GIF encoding itself is lossless, so nothing is lost in this step. Quality already lost when the source was saved as WebP cannot be recovered, though — lossless output preserves the artefacts rather than removing them.
Is there a limit on file size?+
Guests get a smaller per-file limit than signed-in accounts. If a file is rejected as too large, signing in is usually enough to get it through.
Can I convert GIF back to WebP?+
Yes — the GIF to WebP converter handles the reverse direction.
