GIF is limited to a 256-colour palette, which is why gradients in GIFs often look banded. PNG stores full colour, so future edits are not constrained — though it cannot restore colours the GIF already discarded.
GIF transparency is all-or-nothing per pixel, which produces jagged edges. PNG supports partial transparency, so re-exported artwork can have genuinely smooth edges.
An animated GIF becomes a single still image, since PNG holds one frame.

Everything you need to know about gif to png converter.
GIF supports only 256 colours per frame and uses binary transparency (a pixel is either fully transparent or fully opaque). PNG supports 16 million colours and full alpha channel transparency. Converting GIF to PNG immediately unlocks better colour fidelity and smoother transparency edges.
GIF was once the standard for web logos and icons with transparency. PNG has largely replaced it because of full colour support and superior transparency handling. Converting your legacy GIF assets to PNG is a straightforward quality upgrade.
PNG is a lossless format — no compression artifacts are introduced during the GIF-to-PNG conversion. The result is a pixel-accurate representation of the GIF's colour data, now with expanded colour depth.
Your image is sent over HTTPS to our conversion server and permanently deleted as soon as you download. We never store, index, or share your files.
