About this tool

Convert GIF images to PNG straight in your browser. GIF is an old format limited to 256 colours, kept alive by short looping animations, and a GIF of a photograph looks banded and posterised, and the file is still large - which is usually why you are here. PNG is a lossless format that keeps transparency, which is why logos, icons and screenshots are usually saved as one. Files usually come out a little smaller. Both formats are lossless, so every pixel survives the conversion exactly. Transparency survives the conversion intact, so cut-out logos and icons stay cut out. No upload and no account. The conversion runs on your machine, which means confidential files stay confidential and a slow connection makes no difference.

How to use this tool

  1. Add your GIF filesClick the box or drag GIF images onto it. Nothing is uploaded - your browser reads the files directly.
  2. Let it convertEach image is decoded and re-encoded as PNG on your device. A large batch takes a moment; nothing is queued on a server.
  3. Download your PNG imagesSave them one at a time, or take the whole batch as a single ZIP.

Key features

  • No sign-up, no watermark and no file-count limit.
  • Shows the before and after size of every file, so you can see what the conversion cost or saved.
  • Works offline once the page has loaded.
  • Converts GIF to PNG without uploading anything.
  • Batch conversion - drop a whole folder and convert it in one pass.

Common uses

  • Converting a batch of GIF files handed over by a client or a colleague.
  • Preparing GIF images for a platform that rejects the format on upload.
  • Opening a GIF in software that only accepts PNG.
  • Archiving GIF originals in a format you will still be able to open in ten years.
  • Getting GIF images into a document, presentation or email that refuses to embed them.

Tips for better results

  • Convert from the highest-quality GIF you have, not one that has already been resized or re-saved.
  • If the GIF is animated, only the first frame is converted. PNG holds a single still image.
  • Batch the whole folder in one pass - converting one file at a time is the slow way to do this.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Expecting PNG to repair a low-quality GIF. Conversion changes the container, never the pixels already inside it.
  • Renaming the file extension by hand instead of converting. That changes the name, not the data, and the file simply fails to open.

Supported formats

  • GIF
  • PNG

If the GIF is animated, only the first frame is converted. PNG holds a single still image.
