How do I convert AVIF to GIF?

Upload your AVIF 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 AVIF 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.

AVIF compresses still images with the AV1 video codec. It usually produces smaller files than JPG and WebP at the same visual quality and supports HDR and transparency.

Is the AVIF 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.

质量滑块范围: 20–100 · 默认: 90: For JPG, WebP, AVIF and image-to-PDF output: higher keeps more detail but makes a bigger file; 60–80 suits most photos. Documents (Publisher, XPS, EPS…) become PDFs with every page and sharp text, with no quality setting.
无损模式开／关: For WebP and AVIF output: keeps every pixel exactly (best for logos, graphics and transparency) at the cost of a larger file.
