How to split a GIF into frames

Open a GIF to see every frame, then download them all as numbered PNG images in one ZIP file. The GIF frame extractor runs in your browser, so the GIF is never uploaded.

  1. Step 1

    Choose your GIF
    Pick a GIF or drop it above.
  2. Step 2

    Look through the frames
    Every frame is shown as a full picture.
  3. Step 3

    Download the frames
    Save them all as PNGs in a ZIP, or one at a time.

What to expect

Supported inputs
Animated and still GIFs.
What happens
Each frame is saved as the full picture shown at that moment, so frames that only redraw part of the GIF come out whole. Transparent pixels stay transparent in the PNGs.
Limits
Long or large GIFs make large ZIP files, since PNG keeps every pixel.

Your files stay on your device

Your computer does the work, so the file never has to be uploaded, and that’s also why it’s free: there’s no server time for us to pay for. You don’t need an account, and nothing you make gets a watermark.

Questions

Many GIFs store only the part of each frame that changes. The extractor draws each frame over the ones before it, as a browser does, so every PNG looks like the GIF at that moment.

Yes. Each frame has its own download button, or take them all in the ZIP.

Each frame’s file name ends with how long it shows, in milliseconds.
