A GIF is often just a picture in an old wrapper — a scanned form, a chart, a logo — that a portal refuses because it wants JPG. This page converts the image on your device.
For an animated GIF the first frame is saved. To turn the animation into a video, use the GIF to MP4 page instead.
Choose PNG rather than JPG when the GIF is a diagram or has a transparent background.

Frequently asked questions
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. This conversion runs entirely inside your browser using your own device’s processing power. The file never leaves your computer or phone, which is why it also works when your connection drops.
Which frame of an animated GIF is used?
The first. Convert the GIF to MP4 if you need the motion.
JPG or PNG?
JPG for photographs, PNG for text, diagrams and transparency.
