Use our free online GIF to PNG tool. Fast, secure, and no sign-up required. Free to use with no sign-up and no watermark.
This tool converts a GIF image into a PNG file in your browser. Nothing is uploaded, so the conversion is instant and the file stays private. The output keeps the pixel dimensions of the original unless you ask for a resize.
GIF uses lossless but limited to 256 colours and supports 1-bit transparency. PNG uses lossless compression and supports full transparency. That difference is what decides whether the conversion is a good idea for your particular image.
PNG is the better choice for logos, screenshots, line art and any graphic that needs sharp edges or transparency. GIF is still the better choice for simple animations and small graphics. If you are converting between the two, you are usually trading transparency and file size against sharpness — larger file sizes in most cases.
One practical warning: GIF supports animation, and PNG does not support animation. If animation matters, converting in this direction will lose it. Verify the result visually before it goes live.
Add the file, choose the output settings, and download the converted image. Open both versions side by side at 100% to check for banding or ringing around high-contrast edges, especially on text and thin lines.
Yes. The file is processed locally in your browser and is never uploaded to a server, so it is safe for private screenshots and documents.
PNG uses lossless compression, so some quality loss is possible if the source is lossless but limited to 256 colours. Keep the original file and compare the output before you overwrite anything.
No fixed limit — the work is done by your own device, so very large files simply take longer.
Yes. The pixel dimensions are preserved unless you deliberately resize the image.
