What this converter does

AVIF is efficient on the web, but some older apps still expect GIF. This converter recreates a still GIF version of your AVIF file. Animated AVIF is not preserved as an animated GIF.

Convert AVIF to GIF when a recipient or workflow cannot open AVIF and specifically needs GIF.

How to convert AVIF to GIF

Upload your AVIF file. Drop one or more AVIF files into the upload area (max 200 MB each).
GIF color limits apply. GIF is remapped to a 256-color palette. There is no JPEG-style quality slider. Photographs often look posterized. This creates a still GIF, not an animation.
Convert to GIF. Press Convert to GIF. Processing runs in your browser — the file is not uploaded to ImgTask's server.
Download the result. Download the converted GIF file when it is ready. Conversion stayed on your device.

AVIF to GIF is a last-resort export

For compatibility, AVIF to JPG is almost always the better still-image choice.

Formats, limits, and privacy

Upload limit: 200 MB per image, up to 20 files at once. Images above about 100 megapixels may fail in the browser. Conversion re-encodes pixels and strips EXIF, GPS, XMP, ICC, and DPI metadata; orientation is applied visually first. Animated sources use the first frame. GIF output is limited to 256 colors. Transparent pixels are flattened onto white.

Limitations: GIF is limited to 256 colors. Animated AVIF is not preserved as an animated GIF. Transparent pixels are flattened onto white.

Privacy: Your image is processed locally in your browser and is not uploaded to ImgTask's server. Image files never leave your device. No account is needed and results carry no watermark.

Frequently Asked Questions

Usually not. GIF’s 256-color limit is a large step down from photographic AVIF.

You can convert images up to 200 MB each, and up to 20 files at once. Very large pixel dimensions may still fail in the browser even when the file is under the upload limit.

Conversion runs in your browser. Your image is processed locally in your browser and is not uploaded to ImgTask's server. Image files never leave your device. If the browser cannot process the file, you will see an error and nothing is uploaded.

No. Conversion re-encodes pixels and strips EXIF, GPS, XMP, ICC, and DPI metadata. EXIF orientation is applied visually first so portrait photos stay upright. Live Photos, depth maps, and similar extras are not stored in the output.

No. This converter writes a still GIF from a single frame. It does not build frame-by-frame animation from TIFF pages or from animated WEBP/AVIF/GIF sources.

Transparent pixels are flattened onto a white background in this GIF output path.
