Frequently Asked Questions

APNG (Animated PNG) is a modern animated format with better compression and color support than GIF. However, GIF has universal compatibility across all platforms, browsers, email clients, and messaging apps.

GIF has universal support everywhere—old browsers, email clients, messaging apps, and social media. APNG has limited support on older platforms, so GIF ensures your animation works everywhere without fallback images.

Yes. All animation frames from your APNG are converted with the same timing, frame delays, and loop settings. No frames are skipped, lost, or altered.

Usually yes, since GIF uses older compression methods. APNG typically compresses 15-30% better than GIF, so expect slightly larger file sizes after conversion—the trade-off for universal compatibility.

No. GIF is limited to 256 colors per frame, while APNG supports millions of colors. Complex gradients or photos may show color banding in GIF. For simple graphics and icons, this limitation is rarely noticeable.

Yes. Frame delays and animation speed are preserved during conversion. Your GIF will play at the same speed as the original APNG file.

Yes. GIF is the most widely supported animated format for email clients (Gmail, Outlook) and messaging platforms (WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack). APNG often doesn't animate in these contexts.

Completely private. All conversion happens locally in your browser using JavaScript. Your files are never uploaded to any server or transmitted over the internet.

Yes. Select or drag multiple APNG files at once. All animations will be converted to GIF, and you can download them individually or as a ZIP archive.

Ensure the file is a valid APNG (not a static PNG). Very large files or animations with hundreds of frames may take longer to process. Try refreshing and converting one file at a time if issues occur.
