Frequently Asked Questions

Why convert GIF to PNG?

GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) uses lossy (limited to 256 colors) encoding and is best for simple animations, memes, and images on platforms that support animated GIFs natively. PNG (Portable Network Graphics) uses lossless encoding and excels at graphics with sharp edges, text overlays, screenshots, and images requiring transparent backgrounds. Converting between them lets you take advantage of each format's strengths — for example, using a compressed format for sharing and a lossless format for editing. All conversion happens locally in your browser with no file size limits.
