About GIF and ALAC
GIF: Animated GIF loops short silent clips and plays everywhere — chats, emails, websites and presentations — without a video player.
ALAC: ALAC is Apple's lossless format. It compresses audio to roughly half the size of WAV with zero quality loss and plays natively in Apple Music, iTunes and on every iPhone. It is saved with the .m4a extension.
