Frequently Asked Questions

What about animated GIFs?

Only the first frame is converted to PNG. For animated GIFs, consider converting to a video format like MP4 or WebM using our GIF to MP4 tool.

Will transparency be preserved?

Yes — PNG fully supports transparency, so transparent areas of the GIF come through cleanly.

Is the conversion lossless?

Yes. Both GIF and PNG are lossless formats, so the first frame is reproduced pixel-perfectly.
