Convert HEIC to GIF
Free online HEIC to GIF converter. Drag and drop files, convert in batch, and download, without ever uploading to a server.
Why convert HEIC to GIF?
Rarely the best choice for photos, but HEIC to GIF helps when a legacy form, email template, or forum only accepts GIF. Expect a 256-color palette and larger files than JPG for the same shot.
Tips
- Prefer HEIC to JPG for photos; use GIF only when required.
- Gradients may band. Flat graphics fare better.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert HEIC to GIF?
Drop your HEIC file into the converter above, adjust the quality if needed, and click "Convert to GIF". The conversion happens entirely in your browser. Your file is never uploaded to any server.
Is the HEIC to GIF conversion lossless?
GIF is limited to 256 colors, so photos can band. This is a compatibility export, not a quality-preserving one. Prefer JPG for photos unless a form requires GIF.
Is there a file size limit?
The tool can handle files up to about 20 MB per image. Since processing happens in your browser, the practical limit is your device's available memory. Most modern devices can comfortably batch-convert dozens of images at once.
Are my HEIC files uploaded to your servers?
No. All HEIC to GIF conversion happens entirely client-side. HEIC is decoded with a wasm library loaded only when needed. Your files never leave your browser.
