About the GIF to JPG
GIF is Graphics Interchange Format. Universally supported animation, and transparency that works everywhere including decades-old software. Capped at 256 colours, so photographs band badly, and the files are far larger than an equivalent video or animated WebP.
JPG is JPEG. Built for photographs. Its compression discards detail the eye is least sensitive to, so a photo can drop by 90% with no visible change. No transparency at all, and it puts visible halos around hard edges — which makes it the wrong choice for text, logos and screenshots.
What changes in this conversion: JPG has no transparency. Anything transparent in your GIF will be filled with a solid colour — white unless you choose otherwise. JPG holds a single image. An animated GIF will be converted to its first frame only. GIF is lossless and JPG is not, so this conversion discards detail permanently. Keep the original if you may need to edit it later.
The whole conversion happens on a canvas in your own browser. The file is read from disk with the File API, decoded, redrawn and re-encoded locally, so it is never uploaded and there is no size limit beyond your device's memory.
How it works
Drop in a GIF file — it is read by your browser, not uploaded.
It is decoded and re-encoded as JPG on your own device.
Download the result. Nothing is stored anywhere.
