About PNG To GIF Converter Online
PNG (Portable Network Graphics) uses lossless compression and is the standard choice for images that need transparency, crisp edges, or pixel-perfect fidelity — logos, screenshots, icons, and illustrations. PNG files are larger than JPEG for photographs.
Converting to GIF is useful when you need a simple animation or a graphic with a limited colour palette that must work in older environments. For full-colour photographs, GIF's 256-colour limit will cause visible quality loss.
This tool converts your PNG images to GIF directly in the browser. Upload your file, choose a quality preset if available, and download the converted result instantly.

How to convert PNG to GIF
Upload your PNG file
Click the upload area or drag a PNG image. The tool processes files locally.
Convert
Press the Convert button. Sharp decodes the PNG and outputs a static GIF. GIF is limited to a 256-color palette, so photographic images will show visible color reduction.
Check the output
Click Download to save the .gif file. Review the thumbnail first — color banding and dithering artifacts are expected when converting continuous-tone images to GIF's restricted palette.
When to use GIF
GIF is best for simple flat-color graphics, icons, or thumbnails where broad compatibility is required. For photos, PNG or WebP will produce far better quality. This tool outputs static GIFs only.
