Convert GIF to PNG

Drop your GIF files and get PNG files back, made in your own browser: nothing is uploaded and there is no daily limit. Other pictures and formats work here too.

Lower makes a smaller file; 80–90 looks the same as the original to most eyes.

A JPG has no transparency, so the clear parts of a PNG or WebP get this colour instead of turning black.

Leave empty to keep each photo's own size in pixels. A photo is only ever made smaller, never larger.

In: JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, GIF (its first frame) or BMP; HEIC in Safari, and in Chrome or Edge where the device plays HEVC video. As many as you like.

About GIF and PNG

GIF
GIF is a format from 1987 for simple pictures and short animations, with at most 256 colours. Converting takes its first frame; PNG keeps that frame exactly, transparency included.
PNG
PNG keeps every pixel exactly, with no loss, and can have transparent parts. It suits screenshots, logos and pictures with text; for a photo the file is several times the size of a JPG.

How it works

  1. Choose the format to convert to: JPG, PNG, WebP or AVIF.
  2. Set the quality, and for a JPG the colour under any transparent parts.
  3. Choose, drop or paste one photo or many; each is converted at once, with its size before and after.
  4. Download each file, or all of them as one ZIP. Change a setting and every photo is converted again.

Why this one

Nothing is uploaded
Other converters send your photos to their servers and keep them there for hours. Here your own browser converts them, so they never leave your device.
No limit
There is no daily count, no queue and no file cap to pay to lift: convert 5 photos or 500.
Upright and private
A phone photo is turned the way it was taken, and the new file carries none of the photo's hidden details: not the camera, not the date, not the place it was taken.
Transparency kept or filled
PNG, WebP and AVIF keep the clear parts clear. A JPG cannot, so you choose the colour that goes under them instead of a black box.

Questions

How do I convert GIF to PNG?

Choose PNG, then drop the GIF files here. Each becomes a PNG at once; download them one by one or as a ZIP.

What happens to an animated GIF?

Only its first frame is kept, as one still picture. That frame keeps its colours and transparency exactly in the PNG.

Which format should I choose?

JPG for photos that must open anywhere; PNG for screenshots, logos and anything with transparency; WebP or AVIF for the smallest files on a website. AVIF is smaller still, but older programs may not open it.

Is there a limit on how many photos?

No. The work happens in your browser, so the only limit is your device's memory; a phone takes longer over a large batch.

Why did my file get bigger?

A PNG keeps every pixel, so a photo converted to PNG is often several times its JPG size. For a smaller file choose JPG, WebP or AVIF and a lower quality.

Does it keep the camera details and the location?

No. The new file holds the picture only: the camera, the date and the place it was taken are left out. The photo is turned upright first, so it does not come out sideways.

Can it open HEIC photos from an iPhone?

Yes, in Safari on a Mac, an iPhone or an iPad, and in Chrome or Edge on a device whose graphics chip plays HEVC video (the format inside a HEIC), as most computers and phones of recent years do; they convert like any other photo, the right way up. Where a browser cannot, the file is named as one it cannot open: use Safari there, or set the iPhone to save JPG (Settings → Camera → Formats → Most Compatible).

Are my photos uploaded?

No. Everything happens inside your browser; nothing is sent to us or anyone.
