Convert PNG to GIF
Free online PNG to GIF converter. Drag and drop files, convert in batch, and download, without ever uploading to a server.
Why convert PNG to GIF?
Convert PNG to GIF when you need broad legacy support for simple graphics, icons, or flat-color UI assets. GIF is limited to 256 colors, best for logos and diagrams, not photos.
Tips
- Transparent PNGs become GIF transparency with a single matte color.
- For photos, prefer WebP or JPG instead of GIF.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert PNG to GIF?
Drop your PNG 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 PNG 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 PNG files uploaded to your servers?
No. All PNG to GIF conversion happens entirely client-side. Conversion uses the Canvas API. Your files never leave your browser.
