Conversion happens on your device using your browser's own image engine. Your files are never uploaded, so there is no size limit beyond your device's memory.
Why PNG beats GIF for still images
GIF is limited to 256 colours per frame — a constraint from 1987 that shows badly on photographs and gradients, where it produces visible banding and dithering speckle. PNG has no such limit and handles millions of colours.
PNG also has proper alpha transparency, where GIF only supports a single fully-transparent colour. That is why GIF logos often show ugly jagged edges against a coloured background while PNG versions look clean.
Animated GIFs become a single frame
PNG is a still image format, so converting an animated GIF gives you its first frame only. That is the intended behaviour of this tool — if you need to keep the animation, GIF or WebP are the formats to stay in.
Frequently asked questions
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. The conversion runs inside your browser using your device's own processor. Your files are never transmitted anywhere, which is why the tool works even if you disconnect from the internet after the page loads.
What happens to an animated GIF?
You get a single still image — the first frame. PNG cannot store animation.
Will the colours look better?
They will not be degraded further, and any banding already baked into the GIF stays. PNG simply stops the image losing anything more.
Is there a file limit or a paywall?
There is no account, no watermark, and no upload cap. Because your device does the work, the only practical limit is your available memory. The site is funded by ads, not subscriptions.
