Convert GIF to PNG

Convert a GIF to a PNG image, keeping its transparency. For animated GIFs, the first frame is saved as a still PNG, which is handy for thumbnails, previews and documents. It all happens in your browser.

Frequently asked questions

What happens to an animated GIF when converted to PNG?

Only the first frame is kept, as a still PNG, because the browser's canvas reads one frame. To keep the animation, leave it as a GIF or turn it into a short video.

Will a GIF look better as a PNG?

It will look the same: PNG keeps the GIF's pixels exactly. PNG can hold millions of colours, but it can't recover colours the GIF's 256-colour palette already lost.

Can I convert several GIFs to PNG at once?

Yes, up to 20 at a time. Download each PNG or all of them together as a ZIP file.
