GIF to PNG
Convert GIF to lossless PNG with transparency preserved. Free, browser-based, no upload.
Convert GIF to PNG entirely in your browser. The file is decoded and re-encoded on your own device using the browser's built-in image engine, so it is never uploaded to a server — useful for private screenshots, ID scans, or client work you would rather not send anywhere. There is no signup, no watermark, and no file-size limit beyond your device's memory.
GIF is a legacy format limited to 256 colors; only the first frame of animations is converted. PNG is lossless and supports transparency — best for graphics, logos, and screenshots.

GIF vs PNG: what changes
GIF: GIF is a legacy format limited to 256 colors; only the first frame of animations is converted.
PNG: PNG is lossless and supports transparency — best for graphics, logos, and screenshots.
PNG is lossless, so the converted file matches the source pixel-for-pixel — there is no quality slider and nothing is discarded.
Why convert in your browser
Most online converters upload your image to a remote server, process it there, and send it back — which means your file sits on someone else's machine. This tool runs the whole conversion locally in your browser tab, so the image never leaves your device. There is no upload wait, no per-file size cap, and sensitive images stay private. Once the page has loaded, it even works offline.
Quick tips
- ✓Keep your original GIF. Converting does not delete it, and you may want to re-export at a different quality later.
- ✓Converting a photo to PNG will not shrink it — PNG is lossless and best for graphics, logos, and screenshots. For a smaller photo, convert to JPG or WebP instead.
- ✓PNG is a good fit when you need transparency or pixel-perfect graphics.
- ✓Converting does not change the pixel dimensions — only the format and file size. Use a resize tool first if you also need the image smaller.
- ✓Browser-based conversion usually strips EXIF metadata like GPS and camera info, which is often a privacy plus when sharing photos.
