How to convert WEBP to GIF

  1. Add your WebP files. Drop up to 30 WebP files into the box, or browse for them. They are decoded in your browser.
  2. Keep the animation. Animated WebP becomes an animated GIF. Change the speed, the loop, or keep every 2nd frame for a smaller file.
  3. Pick the colours. A GIF holds up to 256 colours. Dithering keeps gradients smooth; turn it off for flat stickers.
  4. Convert and download. Press Convert to GIF. One or two files download directly, more than two come as a ZIP.

GIF too big for Discord or a forum? Run it through Compress GIF.

Why convert WebP to GIF?

Animated WebP is great on websites, but many places still only play GIF.

Older chat apps, forums, email newsletters, PowerPoint and some social sites show a WebP as a still - or not at all.

A GIF plays everywhere, which is why stickers and reactions still travel as GIFs.

Tips

  • Smaller GIF: keep every 2nd frame, resize to 480 px, or drop to 128 colours.
  • Flat stickers: turn dithering off for clean colour areas.
  • Soft shadows become hard edges - GIF transparency is on or off. Fill a background colour if the edge looks rough.
  • Just one frame? Turn off Keep the animation and tick the frame you want.
