About the GIF to APNG Converter
Our free online GIF to APNG converter turns your .gif image into a high-quality Animated PNG document with full 24-bit color depth and smooth alpha channel transparency. Unlike GIF's limited 256-color palette and hard-edged transparency, APNG supports 16.7 million colors and soft, gradient transparency — perfect for crisp graphics, logos, and detailed images.
Unlike most online tools, conversion happens entirely inside your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API — your image is never uploaded to a server. That means it's fast, works without an internet round-trip, and keeps your files completely private and secure.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between GIF and APNG?
APNG supports 16.7 million colors (24-bit) and smooth, gradient alpha transparency, while GIF is limited to a 256-color palette and binary, pixelated transparency — APNG produces noticeably crisper, more accurate images.
Are APNG files supported in modern browsers?
Yes. All major modern web browsers — Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge — support APNG natively, so your converted file will display correctly for virtually all users.
Is my data safe?
Yes. Conversion happens entirely in your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API — your image is never uploaded to a server, so it stays completely private.
Will the converted file still be animated?
The converter captures the currently rendered frame of your GIF and exports it as a high-quality PNG. For a fully animated multi-frame result, keep the original GIF alongside your converted still image.
Does it cost money?
No. The GIF to APNG converter is 100% free to use, with no registration or account required.
