GIF resizer FAQ

How do I resize a GIF?

Drop a GIF onto the box above, or click to choose a file. Set a percent or a pixel width, then hit Resize GIF. When it finishes, download the new file. Everything runs in your browser.

Can I resize a GIF without losing quality?

Scaling down keeps more detail than scaling up. Start with 50% or 75% if you just need a smaller file. If the GIF still feels heavy, drop the color count to 128 or 64. Making a GIF larger cannot invent missing pixels, so the result may look softer.

Is this GIF resizer free?

Yes. gifresize is free to use in your browser. There is no signup, and downloaded files do not include a watermark.

Will my GIF be uploaded to a server?

No. Your file stays on your device. We decode, resize, and encode it locally with JavaScript. Nothing is sent to gifresize.com or any other server.

Can I use this GIF resizer on mobile?

Yes. It works in mobile browsers. You can pick a GIF from your files app, resize it, and save the result. Bigger GIFs may take longer on a phone.

How do I make a GIF smaller?

Lower the pixel size (50% is a solid first try) and, if you still need a lighter file, cut colors to 128 or 64. You will see the new file size and the percent you saved before you download.

Does resizing keep the animation speed?

Yes. Each frame keeps its original delay, so the GIF should play at the same pace. Loop settings are preserved when the original file includes them.

What file size can I resize?

You can drop GIFs up to 50 MB. Very large animations can strain a browser tab. If a file is huge, we warn you before processing so the tab is less likely to lock up.
