GIF to WebP Converter
Convert GIFs to WebP instantly with complete privacy.
Hi everyone,
I'm excited to share GIF to WebP Converter.
I built this extension because I wanted a faster and more private way to convert GIFs into WebP files. Most online tools require uploading files to external servers, which can be slow and raises privacy concerns.
With this extension, everything happens locally inside your browser. Your files never leave your device, making the process both secure and fast.
I would love to hear your feedback, feature requests, and ideas for future improvements. I'll be actively responding to every comment.
Thank you for checking it out.
A drag and drop folder option would be really nice for batching multiple GIFs at once instead of converting them one at a time.
Privacy-first approach is genuinely refreshing. One thing that would make this a daily driver for me: a drag-and-drop area for multiple files with batch queue processing. Right now handling dozens of GIFs one by one gets tedious, and a simple progress bar per file would help too.
Honestly the offline thing is what sold me, no uploads feels way safer for random gifs. Cut a 4mb one down to like 300kb and the quality still looks good, pretty solid.
Works exactly as described and the offline aspect is genuinely reassuring. Was surprised how much smaller the WebP files came out compared to the original GIFs without any visible quality loss.
Support for batch uploading a whole folder of gifs at once would save a ton of time. Drag and drop the folder and have it churn through every gif inside, exporting webps with matching filenames.
Love that this runs fully offline — exactly what I needed for privacy. One feature that would make it perfect: a batch queue with drag-and-drop so I can drop a folder of GIFs and have them all convert and save to a chosen output folder in one go.
Love that it runs fully offline in the browser, no upload step or signup nonsense. The fact that the conversion is that simple and still preserves the animation cleanly shows real care in the implementation.
