This writes your GIF out as a JPEG carrying the .jfif extension. A GIF to JFIF conversion is worth doing only when something has specifically asked for that extension, which in practice means a records system, an archive process or a piece of internal software from a long time ago.
An animated GIF gives you its first frame and nothing else, because the output is a JPEG and a JPEG holds one still picture. Transparent areas are filled with white for the same reason. Neither is recoverable afterwards, so keep the GIF if either mattered.
Here is the odd part. JPEG can store millions of colours, but your GIF only ever held 256, so the .jfif inherits that limitation without being able to do anything about it. Any banding you can already see in the GIF comes across exactly as it is. The conversion changes the wrapper, not the picture.
Whatever the extension says, the file is a normal JPEG. If some program refuses to open it, renaming it to .jpg will satisfy that program instantly, which is useful to know before you go hunting for another converter.
Written with the .jfif ending
Output matches what an older intake system is checking the filename for.
First frame taken from animations
A moving GIF produces one clean still rather than being rejected.
Filenames set before conversion
Any row can be renamed to fit a filing convention on the way out.
GIF to AVIF Converter
Rewrite a GIF as a modern AVIF image, keeping the picture and dropping the 256 colour ceiling.
AVIF to JPEG Converter
Turn AVIF images into ordinary JPEG photos that every viewer, editor and upload form accepts.
AVIF to JFIF Converter
Produce .jfif files from AVIF images for the systems that will only accept that extension.
AVIF to GIF Converter
Turn AVIF images into still GIF files for the places that will only take a GIF.
Choose JPG unless something has specifically demanded .jfif. The files are the same and .jpg causes far less trouble.
The first one. There is no way to select a different frame here, that needs an animation editor.
Windows Photos and macOS Preview both handle them. Older third party viewers sometimes refuse on the name alone.
On a detailed image, usually yes and by a good margin. On a small flat graphic it can easily come out larger.
