What the GIF to APNG does

Convert an animated GIF to APNG, the animated version of PNG. APNG is supported by all modern browsers and allows smoother transparency than GIF's on/off transparency.

Good to know

APNG files are often larger than the source GIF because PNG compression is lossless.

How to use the GIF to APNG

  1. 1

    Drag your GIF file into the upload area, or click it to browse your device.

  2. 2

    Adjust the options to suit your needs — the defaults work well for most files.

  3. 3

    Click “Run GIF to APNG” to start processing.

  4. 4

    Preview the result, then download it. Batch results can be downloaded together as a ZIP.

Supported formats

  • GIF supports simple animation and up to 256 colors per frame. It is universally supported but produces large files. More about the GIF format.
  • PNG is a lossless format that supports full transparency. Best for screenshots, logos and graphics with sharp edges. More about the PNG format.
