Frequently asked questions

Where can I use animated WebP?

All current browsers display it, as do WhatsApp, Telegram and many content systems. Some older apps and email clients only support GIF.

What Quality should I use?

70 is a good default. Go to 80 or 90 for detailed footage, or down to 50 when size matters more than detail.

Can I make a WhatsApp sticker?

Choose 512 px and keep the clip short. WhatsApp also expects a square image and a small file, so crop to 1:1 first with Crop Video and keep the animation under a few seconds.

Is my video uploaded?

No. The WebP is encoded in your browser with FFmpeg in WebAssembly.

Is transparency supported?

The source is a video, which has no transparency, so the WebP is fully opaque.

Can I do this on my phone?

Yes. Short clips at 480 or 512 px convert quickly in mobile browsers.
