What is BMP (Bitmap)?

BMP is an uncompressed image format. Files are large but they work everywhere and don't need any special decoding. Some legacy applications and embedded systems still expect BMP input.

What is GIF (Graphics Interchange Format)?

GIF supports animation and uses a palette of up to 256 colors. It's mainly used for short animations, simple graphics, and memes. For static images with more color detail, other formats work better.

Will converting BMP to GIF affect quality?

GIF only supports 256 colors. Photos and complex images will lose color detail, but simple graphics, logos, and illustrations usually look fine.

Are my files private?

Yes. Your images are processed entirely in your browser using WebAssembly. Nothing gets uploaded to any server. Your files stay on your device the whole time.
