Why convert PNG to GIF?

PNG is lossless, which makes photos stored as PNG much larger than they need to be. GIF is supported everywhere, including old email clients and forums.

What changes when you convert PNG to GIF

  • File sizes are usually similar; the exact result depends on the quality setting.
  • GIF is lossless: every pixel of the decoded image is preserved exactly.
  • Transparency is preserved: GIF supports an alpha channel.
  • GIF images can be at most 65,535 pixels wide or high; larger images are scaled down automatically.

PNG to GIF: questions & answers

Is converting PNG to GIF free?

Yes, completely free with no sign-up, no watermark and no daily limit.

Will I lose quality converting PNG to GIF?

No. GIF is lossless, so the converted image keeps every pixel exactly as it was decoded from the PNG file.

Can I convert multiple PNG files at once?

Yes. Drop as many files as you like; they are converted in parallel and can be downloaded individually or as a single ZIP.

Are my PNG files uploaded?

No. The conversion runs locally in your browser, so your images never leave your device.

Does it work on iPhone and Android?

Yes. The converter works in current versions of Safari, Chrome, Firefox and Edge on phones, tablets and computers. Very large images may exceed the memory available to mobile browsers.

Should I use PNG or JPG?

Use JPG for photographs and PNG for graphics with sharp edges, text, flat colours or transparency. A photo saved as PNG is lossless but usually far larger.
