Drag & drop GIF images anywhere on this page, or use Paste (Ctrl + V / ⌘ + V) to import quickly. GIF is best for simple animations and limited-color graphics. For higher image quality, consider using video formats or APNG.
GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) is an image format that supports animation and transparency. Limited to 256 colors, it is widely used for animated memes, stickers, simple graphics, and web animations. GIF offers broad compatibility across browsers and devices.
Animated GIFs often contain many frames, making their file sizes much larger than static images. Compressing GIF files reduces storage space, speeds up website loading, improves sharing performance, and lowers bandwidth usage while preserving animation whenever possible.
Large animated GIFs can slow down web pages. Compressing them improves loading speed and user experience.
Smaller GIFs upload faster to platforms like X, Facebook, Discord, Telegram, Reddit, and messaging apps.
Reduce GIF size for easier sharing without losing the animation.
Compressed GIFs are easier to send within email attachment limits.
Optimize animated content to reduce bandwidth usage and improve page performance.
Many content management systems limit upload sizes. Compressing GIFs increases upload success.
Smaller GIF files reduce CDN traffic and server bandwidth costs.
