WebP to GIF converter.

When the image has to work somewhere that doesn't read WebP: old email clients, legacy content systems, feature phones or specialized software. GIF has worked everywhere since the 1990s. This tool writes a still GIF; it doesn't animate.

GIF holds at most 256 colors; a WebP can hold millions. The converter picks the best palette it can with a median-cut quantizer, so photographs and gradients show some banding. Logos, icons and flat graphics convert with no visible loss.

WebP has 256 levels of transparency; GIF has one bit, so each pixel is either fully transparent or fully opaque. The threshold slider sets the cutoff: alpha below it becomes transparent. Adjust it until edges look clean, or turn transparency off to flatten the image over a color.

Rarely. GIF's LZW compression is far weaker than WebP's, so the GIF is usually larger, unless the image is a very simple graphic with few colors. The point is compatibility, not size.

No. The browser decodes the file, a canvas does the work and the result is built on your device; the page makes no request with your image. You can load it, go offline and keep working.

Drop the WebP, pick the palette size and whether to keep transparency, and download the GIF. The file is a real GIF89a written in the browser, not a renamed PNG, so it opens in anything that reads GIF.

Fewer colors give a smaller file and more banding. 256 is the best a GIF can do; 64 or 16 suit flat graphics and give a smaller file. The status line says how many colors the palette used.

No. The WebP to GIF converter is free and opens without a sign-in, an account or an install.

Nothing. The WebP to GIF converter holds your input in the page's memory, so closing or reloading the tab clears it, and it saves nothing in this browser.

Up to 100 MB per file, the limit the tool states under its drop area. A larger file is refused with a plain message instead of being decoded.

No, it takes one file at a time. If you drop or choose several, only the first is used; run the tool again for the next one.

No. It writes one still frame: a GIF with a palette of up to 256 colors, optionally dithered. Animation in the source is not kept.

No. The browser decodes the image and the tool writes a new file from its pixels, so camera EXIF, GPS position and text chunks in the original are not copied into the result. Keep the original file if you need them.
