How to
Convert WebP to GIF.
- 1Choose your .webp files, or drop them on the box. Up to 50 at once.
- 2Leave Dither on for photos and gradients; turn it off for flat graphics. Images with 256 colours or fewer keep their exact colours either way.
- 3Download each GIF, or Download all to get one ZIP file.
Limits
What GIF can and cannot hold.
- GIF holds at most 256 colours per frame. Photos are reduced to the 256 that represent them best, and dithering hides the steps.
- Transparency is on or off per pixel. Soft, semi-transparent edges become either solid or clear.
- This tool saves one still frame. Animated WebP files are converted as their first frame.
- For anything that does not have to be a GIF, PNG keeps more colour: see WebP to PNG.
FAQ
Questions people ask first.
- How do I convert WebP to GIF?
- Drop the WebP file into the tool above and download the GIF. Several files can be converted at once with a ZIP download.
- Does it convert animated WebP to an animated GIF?
- No. The tool saves the first frame as a still GIF.
- Why does my GIF look grainy?
- That is dithering, which mixes the 256 available colours to imitate the rest. Turn Dither off for flat graphics, or use PNG if you need every colour.
- Is transparency kept?
- Yes, as full transparency. Pixels that were partly transparent become fully clear or fully solid.
- Are my images uploaded?
- No. Your browser opens and converts the images on your own device. Nothing is sent to Daniotech or anyone else.
