GIFs are much more widely recognized by different applications, and their compression gives them very small file sizes. They’re effective and speed up websites nicely, but not every application supports them.
WEBP files are nicely compressed, digital image files designed for use on websites and browsers. You’ve definitely come across them before, particularly on social media and image sharing apps. These are primarily designed for - and used across - websites on the internet. A huge difference between a GIF and another bitmap image file, like a JPG, is that they can be saved as animated GIFs, which cycle between images to create a short, looping animation. GIFs contain up to 256 colors, so they’re not often used for photos, but as they have lossless compression, they work well for navigation buttons and logos on websites. File sizes tend to be smaller but, as a result, are not suitable for printing.Ī GIF - or graphics interchange format - is a bitmap file widely used around the internet. WEBP files are the sister project of WEBM files and use both lossy and lossless compression. By replacing most of the images on image-heavy websites with WEBP files, web pages will load faster and use less battery, which is ideal for mobile browsing.
By maintaining higher quality and smaller size, WEBP files are intended to make the web faster without losing the quality of the images we are used too. WEBP is an image file designed by Google to make websites more efficient.
