Convert GIF to PNG
Create PNG files from GIF images for editors, screenshots, and tools that prefer PNG. Animated GIFs convert as the first frame only, not as an animation.

PNG is a better fit than GIF for many still images because it supports full-color lossless pixels and transparency-friendly workflows. It is often the format requested by design tools, support forms, and asset libraries.
This converter uses the same browser raster decoding path as the other non-HEIC image pairs. If the GIF is animated, createImageBitmap supplies the first frame to the canvas, so the exported PNG is a single still image.
A PNG can store the decoded frame losslessly, but it cannot invent quality beyond the GIF source. If the original was reduced to a 256-color palette, the PNG keeps those decoded colors rather than recreating the missing ones.
Does this upload my files?
No. Everything on this page runs locally in your browser, so your files are never uploaded to a server. Close the tab and nothing is left behind. It even keeps working if you go offline after the page loads.
This is true for every tool on this site. Curious how that works? Read how browser-side processing works.
FAQ
Can this convert an animated GIF into animated PNG?
No. Animated GIFs are decoded as the first frame only, and the output PNG is a single still image.
When is PNG better than JPG for a GIF?
Choose PNG for logos, screenshots, pixel art, transparency, and editing workflows where a lossless still frame matters.
Will GIF to PNG improve the original colors?
No. PNG avoids adding another lossy save, but it cannot recover colors that were already lost to GIF's 256-color limit.
Is the GIF uploaded during conversion?
No. The file is decoded and encoded in the browser worker, then returned as a local blob download.
