About GIF and PNG

PNG was literally designed as GIF's successor: same lossless nature, but with millions of colors, real alpha transparency and better compression. For any static image, PNG is simply the better container — usually smaller, never lower quality.

GIF's on/off transparency carries over cleanly (PNG supports that and much more). The conversion is lossless: the PNG stores exactly the pixels the GIF displayed. Animation is the one thing PNG doesn't take over — an animated GIF converts to a still PNG of its first frame.

Private by design

Your files are processed directly in your browser using the browser's built-in image APIs and are not uploaded to Filesvo. Nothing is stored on our servers, because nothing ever reaches them.

Frequently asked questions

Is GIF to PNG conversion lossless?
Yes. The PNG stores exactly the pixels your browser decoded from the GIF — including its transparency. GIF's 256-color limit was baked in when the GIF was made; those colors transfer perfectly.
What happens to animated GIFs?
Only the first frame is converted — PNG is a still-image format. Filesvo notes this on every converted file.
Will the PNG be smaller than the GIF?
Often, yes — PNG's compression usually beats GIF's older LZW scheme on the same pixels. Filesvo shows the exact size change for every file.
Do my files leave my device?
No. The whole conversion runs inside your browser — nothing is uploaded.
