Frequently Asked Questions

Will this reduce animation smoothness?
Lowering the FPS reduces file size but also reduces how smooth the animation looks; try a moderate value like 10-15 first.
Does this affect image quality?
A new color palette is generated for the compressed output, which can slightly change color accuracy on very colorful GIFs.
Does reducing the max width also shrink the file size?
Yes, scaling down the width — with height adjusted proportionally — can reduce file size significantly, especially combined with a lower FPS.
Is my GIF uploaded to a server for compression?
No, compression runs locally using an in-browser WebAssembly engine, so your file never leaves your device.
Can I compress multiple GIFs at once?
No, this tool processes one GIF at a time.
