Why convert to GIF when WebP is better?

WebP is smaller and richer, but some apps and chat platforms still want GIF. Use this when the target only accepts GIF.

Does it handle animated WebP?

It exports a single still frame, the first one. For multi-frame animations, use a dedicated animator.

WEBP to GIF

Converts WebP to GIF, capped at 256 colors.

What this does

This decodes each WebP and quantizes the first frame to a 256-color palette, then encodes a single-frame GIF. It's the right move when a target only accepts GIF, even though WebP is smaller and richer; an animated WebP becomes one still frame.

How it works

1Drop your WebP images.
2Each one is quantized to a 256-color palette and encoded as GIF.
3Download each result, or grab them all as a zip.
