Frequently asked questions

What is APNG?

Animated PNG: a PNG file with several frames. Unlike GIF it supports millions of colours and partial transparency, and it shows as a still image in apps that do not animate it.

Will the APNG be smaller?

Not always — APNG stores full-colour frames, so it is often larger than a GIF with heavy optimisation. Its advantage is quality and soft edges.

Where can I use APNG?

Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari, Discord stickers and many messaging apps.

Is my GIF uploaded?

No. The animation is converted in your browser, so the file never leaves your device.

Can I edit the animation first?

Yes. Crop, resize, change the speed or add text before converting.
