GIF to Frames

Split a GIF, APNG, WebP or short clip into PNG, JPG or WebP frames and download them as a ZIP.

Free, no uploads, no sign-up. Runs 100% in your browser.

How GIF to Frames works

Animations are decoded into full frames in your browser (GIF with gifuct-js, APNG with UPNG.js, WebP frames with the browser decoder), edited, then written back out. GIF is encoded with gifenc plus our own frame optimiser; WebP, MP4 and WebM go through ffmpeg.wasm. Each exported frame is the complete picture as it appears at that moment.

Input: GIF, APNG, WEBP, AVIF, MP4, MOV, WEBM, MKV, AVI. Output: PNG, JPG, WEBP, ZIP.

How to use GIF to Frames

  1. Drop one or more images onto GIF to Frames.
  2. Tune the options. The before/after preview updates live.
  3. Process the batch.
  4. Download a single image, or everything as a ZIP.

Tips

  • Most image tools accept many files at once.
  • WebP and AVIF give much smaller files than JPG at the same visual quality.
  • Set a default image quality in Settings. Tools that do not choose their own quality use it.

GIF to Frames FAQ

Are my files uploaded?
No. This tool runs entirely in your browser tab. Files are read from your disk into memory and the result is generated locally.
Is it free? Are there limits or watermarks?
Free and open source (MIT). There are no file-size caps, daily quotas, accounts or watermarks.
Does it work offline?
Yes, once the page (and any engine it needs) has loaded, it keeps working without a connection thanks to the service worker cache.
