The WebP Image format supports both lossy and lossless encoding with transparency and animation, typically 25-35% smaller than equivalent JPEG or PNG files. Converting to GIF produces a image file that stores up to 256 indexed colours per frame and supports frame-based animation in a single file. This conversion changes the file's encoding, compression method, and supported feature set. Colour profiles and orientation metadata are preserved in the output. This makes GIF the practical choice when the destination system requires it or when the target format offers better compatibility or compression. 1converter runs this conversion on the server: your file is uploaded encrypted over HTTPS, converted using trusted open-source libraries, and the output is held for 24 hours before automatic deletion.
