About 3GP
3GP is a container format defined by the 3GPP for mobile phones. It is a simplified relative of MP4 that typically holds H.263 or H.264 video with AMR or AAC audio.
Videos recorded on older mobile phones, especially before smartphones.
3GP videos are usually low resolution and heavily compressed, and converting them cannot add detail.

Why is the video from my old phone so tiny and pixelated? 3GP was built for small low-resolution phone screens on slow mobile networks, so there is no detail in the file to recover — the source simply never had it.
About Animated PNG
APNG (Animated PNG) extends PNG with animation frames. A viewer that does not support APNG shows its first frame as an ordinary PNG.
Animated stickers and web animations that need more than GIF's 256 colours or smooth transparency; all major browsers display it.
An APNG is usually much larger than a video of the same clip, and it has no sound.
Why convert an animation to APNG? It keeps GIF-style looping but with full colour and transparency, so gradients and photos survive.
