How do I convert a GIF to PNG?

Drop your .gif onto the upload zone (or click to browse, or paste with Ctrl+V / Cmd+V); it decodes and previews. Press Export, choose PNG, and download. It is completely free and runs entirely in your browser, so your image is never uploaded.

Are images uploaded to a server?

No. The GIF is decoded and re-encoded entirely in your browser; the image never leaves your device. This is the core design principle of the tool.

What about animated GIFs?

This tool exports the first frame of an animated GIF as a still PNG. To turn images back into an animation, use the GIF Maker tool.

Why convert GIF to PNG?

PNG supports millions of colours (GIF is limited to 256) and lossless transparency, so a single frame looks better as a PNG and is widely supported.

Is converting GIF to PNG free?

Yes — converting a GIF (or its first frame) to a lossless PNG is completely free, forever. No account, no sign-up, and no limit on how many files you convert. The Canvas API decodes and re-encodes the image entirely in your browser; your files are never sent to any server. The site is ad-supported.

Does it work offline?

Yes. Conversion uses the Canvas API and needs no server connection, so it works offline after the page loads.

What output formats are available?

PNG (lossless, default), JPG (smaller, for photos), or WebP (smallest).

GIF is limited to a 256-colour palette per frame, while PNG supports up to 16 million colours plus full alpha transparency.
Browsers decode the first frame of a GIF natively, so converting a frame to PNG needs no extra library.
PNG uses lossless compression, so the converted frame is pixel-identical to the GIF frame.
For a still image, PNG is usually a better choice than GIF in both quality and colour fidelity.
Because conversion is client-side, the image is never transmitted, keeping it private.
