Why Convert GIF to AVIF file?

AVIF is a modern, highly efficient image format that stores excellent quality in very small files, and it supports animation. Converting GIF to AVIF keeps the animation while shrinking the file dramatically compared with the older, 256-color GIF, and it supports far more colors for smoother, better-looking results. For the web, that means faster loading without losing the motion.

AVIF is supported by every current browser, so animated AVIF plays for the vast majority of visitors while using much less bandwidth than a GIF. It is an excellent choice for web pages where you want lively animation without the weight. If you need to post somewhere that only accepts GIF, keep a GIF copy, but for the modern web, AVIF gives you the same motion in a far lighter, sharper file.
