Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the GIF Converter and the GIF Maker?
The GIF Maker focuses on building one animation with individual frame timing. The converter adds the reverse direction, splitting an existing GIF into PNG frames.
Are exported PNG frames lossless?
Yes. Each frame is saved as a PNG with exactly the colors stored in the GIF, including transparent areas.
Can I convert a GIF to MP4 or WebM here?
No. This converter works with still images and GIF only; video encoding is not included.
