About GIF to AVIF conversion
GIF images are limited to 256 colors and use dated compression. AVIF is a next-generation format that produces dramatically smaller files while supporting full color depth, transparency, and even HDR. Converting static GIFs to AVIF reduces file size while improving image quality.
When to convert GIF to AVIF
You have GIF images that are too large for web use and want better compression without sacrificing quality.
This tool converts your GIF to AVIF format. The quality slider lets you balance file size and visual fidelity.
AVIF is supported by Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge. For animated GIFs, this converts the first frame.
