Does animated WebP work everywhere GIF does?

Every modern browser supports it. Some older chat apps or forums that expect a literal .gif file may not — check where you're posting it if that matters.

Why would I use WebP instead of GIF?

Smaller file size at comparable quality, mainly — WebP's compression is simply more efficient than GIF's palette-based approach.

Video to Animated WebP

Animated WebP usually beats GIF on file size at the same visual quality, and modern browsers display it natively. This tool encodes it locally using a real WebAssembly build of libwebp — nothing is uploaded.

How it works

1. Drop your file on the stage.
2. Trim, crop, and choose quality.
3. Download the export to your device.
