How to convert GIF to PNG

  1. Add your GIF file. Drop one file into the box above, or several at once for a batch.
  2. PNG output is already selected. There is nothing to change before you convert.
  3. Download the PNG file. A single file downloads directly and a batch arrives as a ZIP.

Frequently asked questions

Does PNG keep the GIF's transparency?

Yes β€” PNG supports transparency, so any transparent pixels in the GIF's first frame are preserved.

Is this lossless?

Yes, PNG is lossless, so the still frame keeps full quality.

Do I need to install anything?

No software and no sign-up. The GIF-to-PNG converter runs in your web browser, so it works on any device β€” Windows, Mac, Android or iPhone β€” straight from this page.

Can I convert more than one file at once?

Yes. Drop in several images and they are converted together; a single file downloads directly, while a batch arrives as a ZIP.

Is anything uploaded?

No. Conversion happens entirely in your browser β€” your images never leave your device.

Why convert GIF to PNG?

Convert a GIF to PNG when you need a lossless still image, or transparency preserved from the original GIF.

Understanding the two formats

GIF β€” GIF. GIF is an old format limited to 256 colours per frame, which makes it poor for photographs but historically popular for simple animations. For a still image it has been comprehensively surpassed by PNG (for graphics) and WebP (for size), so converting a GIF frame to a modern format almost always gives a smaller, better-looking result.

PNG β€” PNG. PNG is a lossless format, meaning it reproduces every pixel exactly with no compression artefacts. That makes it the right choice for screenshots, logos, icons, diagrams and anything with crisp edges or flat colour, and it fully supports transparency. The trade-off is size: a photograph saved as PNG can be several times larger than the same image as JPG, so PNG is not suited to camera photos you need to keep small.

What to expect from the conversion

Like the JPG conversion, only the first frame is used. PNG keeps any transparency the frame contains.

Converting a batch

Drop in as many GIF files as you need and they are converted together, arriving as a single ZIP. Because the work happens on your own device rather than on a server, a batch is limited only by your own memory, and there is no queue, no daily cap and no sign-up. Private or sensitive images stay entirely with you.

Need a different conversion, or want to process a batch? The full image converter handles JPG, PNG and WebP together, and you can pair it with the compressor if the result also needs to hit a size limit.

Other ways to convert a GIF file

The same GIF reader feeds each conversion below, so whichever output you pick the file is still decoded on your own device.

Other ways to get a PNG file

If what you are starting from is not a GIF, open the converter that matches your own file instead.
