How it works

  3. Select Compress GIF and download the result, whose size is shown next to it.

Frequently asked questions

How does it make a GIF smaller without it looking worse?
Most GIFs from converters store every frame whole, each with colours of its own. This writes one set of colours for the whole animation and leaves out every pixel that did not change since the frame before, which is most of them in most animations — often a third to half off with no visible difference.
What is given up to reach a size?
Only what is needed, in the order it is least noticed: first fewer colours, then a smaller picture, then fewer frames (each kept frame shown for as long as the ones dropped, so the timing stays). The largest version that fits is the one you get.
Why did my GIF come back the same size?
It was already written efficiently, and anything smaller would lose quality. Choose a size, and it is made to fit. A GIF that was already smaller than the size chosen is returned as it was.
Is my GIF uploaded, and what are the free limits?
It is not uploaded: the GIF is rewritten in your browser. The free plan allows 3 files of up to 20 MB per run and 10 runs a day. Pro removes these limits.
