Convert GIF to PNG
Convert GIF to PNG online, free and 100% in your browser. No upload, no signup. All the work happens on your device, so files can be as large as it can handle.
How to convert an image
- Drop or pick your GIF file, or paste it with Ctrl/⌘+V.
- PNG is already selected: output is lossless, fully optimized.
- Convert, compare the before/after, and save. Animated GIFs are split into one PNG image per frame and packed as a ZIP.
Why convert to this format?
GIF is a 256-color format best known for simple animations, but heavy and low-fidelity for photos. PNG is a lossless format with an alpha channel, pixel-perfect for logos, screenshots and line art.
OptImg runs the same high-quality engines desktop tools use, so you get desktop-grade PNG output at a sensible default (lossless output), adjustable at any time, without ever uploading your image.
Your GIF is decoded, re-encoded to PNG and handed straight back, ready to save, all in an instant on your device: no server sees a single byte, which is why there's no queue and files can be as large as your device can handle.
Frequently asked questions
- Is my GIF uploaded to a server?
- The GIF-to-PNG conversion runs at native speed entirely in your browser: nothing is uploaded, your file never leaves your device, there is no queue, and no size limit beyond your device's memory.
- What happens to an animated GIF?
- Each frame is extracted and converted to a separate PNG image, then delivered together as a ZIP, the classic GIF-to-PNG behavior. Animated PNG output isn't supported yet.
- Will converting to PNG change the image?
- PNG output is lossless, so every pixel the decoder reads is preserved exactly, and the file is fully optimized for the smallest lossless size. A “smaller file” toggle can quantize to a palette when you want extra savings.
- Is the GIF to PNG converter free?
- Yes: completely free, with no signup, no watermark and no cap on how many files you convert. There is nothing to install; it runs in your browser.
