Why convert PNG to GIF?
- GIF files are usually smaller than PNG for the same picture, so pages load faster and uploads finish sooner.
- GIF is made for short animations, stickers and flat-colour graphics.
What to expect when converting PNG to GIF
- GIF transparency is on or off per pixel, so soft edges and shadows become hard-edged.
- GIF shows at most 256 colours per frame, so photos and gradients are dithered and may show banding.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I convert PNG to GIF?
- Upload your PNG file above. It is converted to GIF automatically (change the output format or quality in the Settings tab if you need to), then click Download. There is nothing to install.
- Does converting PNG to GIF lose quality?
- GIF is limited to 256 colours per frame, so photos lose colour detail; graphics with few colours convert cleanly.
- Will the GIF keep the transparent background?
- Partly. GIF keeps transparency as on or off per pixel, so soft edges and shadows become hard-edged.
- PNG or GIF: which should I use?
- Use PNG for screenshots, logos, text graphics and cut-outs. Use GIF for short animations, stickers and flat-colour graphics. Keep in mind the main drawback of GIF: only 256 colours and on/off transparency.
- What is a PNG file?
- PNG stores every pixel exactly and supports smooth transparency, which makes it the go-to format for screenshots, logos and graphics, at the cost of large files for photos.
- Is the PNG to GIF converter free?
- Yes. Convert, preview and download a single result without creating an account. Premium adds batch conversion (many files into one ZIP) and larger uploads.
