PNG to GIF Converter
Convert PNG images to GIF entirely in your browser. PNG is lossless, supports transparency, well-supported everywhere; GIF is 256-color palette, supports animation, transparency via 1-bit alpha. The conversion runs locally using the Canvas API — your file is decoded, re-encoded, and offered as a download without ever touching a server.
How to use
- Select one or more PNG files at once, or keep adding files to the queue.
- Click Convert all. Files are processed one at a time in your browser so memory stays bounded.
- A failed file does not stop the rest of the batch; use Retry failed after fixing or replacing it.
- Download each GIF result individually, or download all successful results as a ZIP.
