What happens to your data

Kept

  • AVIF photos and graphics are supported, including transparency
  • Opens everywhere, in chats, forums and old tools

Good to know

  • For an animated AVIF only the first frame is used.
  • GIF has only 256 colors, so photos show banding and lose detail. It suits logos and flat graphics better.
  • Transparency is on or off: soft, semi-transparent edges become hard edges.

AVIF vs GIF

AVIF

An AVIF file uses newer, more efficient compression than WebP, producing noticeably smaller files at the same visual quality. Major browsers now support it, and it's becoming the new default for performance-focused websites.

Used in: High-performance websites · Modern browsers · Bandwidth-sensitive apps

GIF

A GIF file stores simple images or short looping animations using a very limited color palette (256 colors). It's the classic format for memes, reaction animations, and short looped clips.

Used in: Memes & reactions · Simple animations · Messaging apps
