GIF Converter

Convert GIF images to WebP, PNG, JPG and more in your browser (animations kept as WebP or GIF) — nothing is uploaded.

WebP, PNG, JPG, GIF, TIFF, BMP, AVIF, SVG or ICO, one or many. Drop them here or paste with ⌘V / Ctrl+V. Choose what each becomes on its row.

Runs on your device. Images are read and converted in your browser and aren't uploaded.

GIF

  • 256 colours
  • Transparency
  • Animation

The original animated image: short loops, reactions and simple graphics that play almost anywhere, email included. A GIF holds at most 256 colours per frame and its transparency is all or nothing, so photos look grainy and soft edges look jagged.

A GIF has at most 256 colours a frame, so as PNG, TIFF or BMP — or lossless WebP — its colours are kept exactly, while JPG and lossy WebP compress them at the Quality you choose.

  • An animated GIF stays animated as GIF or WebP — every frame, its timing and the loop count; as anything else it gives its first frame. One with more than 1,000 frames — or more than a billion pixels across them all — keeps only its first frame, and the row says so.
  • Transparency is kept as WebP, PNG and TIFF, and all or nothing as GIF; JPG and 24-bit BMP fill it with the Background colour.
  • Choosing GIF itself re-encodes it — to resize it or strip its metadata.
  • GIF files can be up to 256 MB and 268 megapixels.
  • WebP is made by the browser's own encoder in Chrome, Edge and Firefox and by libwebp (WebAssembly) in Safari; PNG and JPG by the browser; GIF, TIFF and BMP by the tool itself — so every format can be made in every modern browser.
  • Camera details, location and other metadata are removed, and so is any colour profile: colours are converted to sRGB. A photo's orientation is applied first, so it stays the right way up.

How to do it

  1. Choose your GIF files, or drop or paste them on the page — as many as you like.
  2. Each starts as a WebP; pick another format for every file with Convert to in Settings, or for one file on its row.
  3. Convert all, then download each image, or all of them in one .zip.
