GIF vs JPG
This saves a still JPG of the GIF’s first frame. GIF only has 256 colours, so the JPG won’t add colours back, and transparent areas become white.

About the two formats
GIF
GIF is the old format behind animated memes. Each frame can only use 256 colours, so photos look grainy and files are large for what they show.
JPG
JPG is the default format for photos. It throws away detail the eye barely notices to keep files small, and every device made in the last 30 years can open it.

Questions
Do my files get uploaded?
No. GIF to JPG runs entirely in your browser, so your files never leave your device. Close the tab and they're gone.
Is it really free?
Yes. No account, no daily limits and no watermark on your files.
What happens to an animated GIF?
The first frame becomes a still JPG.
