How to convert GIF to JPG

  1. Add your GIF files

    Drag one or more GIF files onto the dashed area, or tap it to pick them from your device.

  2. Choose JPG and the options

    JPG is already selected; the options hold the settings that matter for this conversion.

  3. Convert and download

    Press “Convert to JPG”. When it’s done, download the files one by one or all together in a ZIP archive.

Good to know. The GIF’s transparent pixels are filled with the chosen colour, white by default.

GIF and JPG compared

Source format

GIF

GIF (Graphics Interchange Format)

The format of short animations and memes. It uses a palette of at most 256 colours, so it’s fine for simple graphics but degrades photos. Transparency is all-or-nothing: a pixel is either solid or invisible.

Best for
Short animations, icons and graphics with few colours.
Limits
Only 256 colours and no partial transparency; long animations get very heavy.
Compression
lossless, max 256 colours
Transparency

Target format

JPG

JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group)

The photo format par excellence. It compresses the image by discarding details the eye barely notices, so a 12-megapixel photo weighs only a few megabytes. Any device can open it, from an old phone to a photo lab’s printer.

Best for
Photos, pictures to attach to emails and online forms, printing.
Limits
Text, logos and sharp edges show halos; it has no transparency and every re-save loses a little quality.
Compression
lossy

Questions about GIF and JPG

What happens to animated GIFs?

A JPG is a still image, so the first frame is used.

Are my GIF files uploaded to a server?

No. The conversion from GIF to JPG happens entirely in your browser, using your device’s computing power. Files aren’t sent or stored anywhere: when you close the page they’re gone from memory too.

How many files can I convert at once?

Up to 100 files at a time. There’s no fixed size limit: it depends on your device’s memory. On smartphones it’s best to work in smaller batches with heavy files such as videos.

Does it work on iPhone and Android?

Yes, with up-to-date Safari, Chrome, Firefox, Edge and Samsung Internet. On phones, converted files end up in the Downloads folder or the Files app.

What quality should I choose for JPG?

For photos to share or post online, a quality between 75 and 85 gives light files with no visible flaws. For print or archiving go up to 90-95.

Do I need an internet connection?

Only to open the page (and, the first time, to download the components needed for that type of file). After that the conversion keeps working even if the connection drops.
