GIF Compressor FAQ

How does GIF compression work here?
The GIF is decoded into frames and re-encoded with a smaller color palette (you choose the maximum, 8–256 colors), optionally skipping frames. Both shrink the file; frame skipping also speeds up playback unless delays are adjusted.
Will the compressed GIF lose quality?
Some, yes — that is how palette reduction works, and the tool shows the honest before/after sizes so you can pick the smallest setting you find acceptable. The free tier has no artificial limit.
Is my GIF uploaded for compression?
No. Decoding and re-encoding both happen in your browser. The file never leaves your device.
