How to convert GIF to PNG

  1. Upload your GIF file. Drop a GIF into the upload area (max 200 MB each). Animated GIFs use the first frame.
  2. PNG is lossless output. PNG encoding in this tool is lossless, so there is no quality slider. The PNG stores the decoded pixels. It cannot restore detail already discarded by a lossy source.
  3. Convert to PNG. Press Convert to PNG. Processing runs in your browser — the file is not uploaded to ImgTask's server.
  4. Download the result. Download the converted PNG file when it is ready. Conversion stayed on your device.

Still PNG from GIF

PNG can look cleaner than GIF for further editing, but it cannot add colors the GIF never had. The 256-color source remains 256 colors of information.

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.

Limitations: Animation is not preserved. Animated GIFs are converted from the first frame. GIF palette limits are already in the source pixels.

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.

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.
