INSPECT THE SEQUENCE
Combine PNGs into one GIF without losing transparency
Many PNG to GIF converters fill transparent pixels with black or white. Here they stay transparent in the GIF, so the animation sits cleanly on any page, chat or slide.
- Transparent PNGs stay transparent
- Up to 200 frames per GIF
- A palette built from your frames for clean colours
CONTROL THE OUTPUT
Convert animated PNG to GIF, or add photos to a GIF
Drop an animated PNG and every frame is unpacked so you can save it as a GIF. Drop a GIF and add more photos before, between or after its frames.
- APNG and GIF frames unpacked automatically
- Duplicate, reverse or ping-pong frames
- Per-frame delay for pauses and holds
SIDE BY SIDE
GIF or APNG: which should you download?
Both play as animations. Pick by where the file is going and how soft its edges are.
| GIF | APNG (animated PNG) | |
|---|---|---|
| Colours | Up to 256 per frame | Full colour |
| Transparency | On or off per pixel | Smooth, semi-transparent edges |
| Plays in | Almost everywhere, including chats and email | Modern browsers; some apps show only the first frame |
| Best for | Stickers, memes, sharing | Websites and UI animation with soft edges |
THREE SIMPLE STEPS
How to convert PNG to GIF
From your original file to a useful result in three simple steps.
Add your PNGs
Drop one PNG, several PNGs or a PNG sequence. JPG, WebP, GIF and animated PNG (APNG) frames work too.
Arrange and time the frames
Drag frames into order, set the delay for all frames or just one, and choose the loop count, size and colours.
Download the GIF
Preview the animation, create it and check the file size, then download the GIF, or an APNG when you need smooth transparent edges.

PNG to GIF: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert a PNG to a GIF?
Add the PNG, press Create GIF and download it. One PNG becomes a still GIF; two or more PNGs become an animated GIF in the order shown in the frame strip.
Can I convert multiple PNGs to one GIF?
Yes. Select or drop up to 200 PNGs at once, drag them into order, and every PNG becomes one frame of the GIF. You can also add more images later.
Does the GIF keep the PNG's transparent background?
Yes, as long as Background is set to Transparent. GIF transparency is on or off per pixel, so very soft edges are rounded; download APNG if you need smooth semi-transparent edges.
How do I convert an animated PNG (APNG) to GIF?
Drop the animated PNG in. Every frame and its timing is unpacked into the frame strip, so you can edit the order or delay and create a GIF from it.
How do I add a photo to a GIF?
Drop the GIF to unpack its frames, then add your photos and drag them to where they should appear. Create the GIF again to get one animation with everything in it.
Is this PNG to GIF converter free? Are my files uploaded?
It is free, with no sign-up and no watermark. Your images are read and encoded by your own browser and never leave your device.
How big can the GIF be?
Up to 200 frames and 1,200 px wide. Fewer colours, a smaller width or fewer frames make a smaller file; the size is shown after you create the GIF.
