Compress an animated GIF to a target file size such as 256 KB. Adjust colors and dimensions, retain animation, and check the actual output size before downloading.
Add a GIF up to 20 MB. The editor supports up to 400 frames, 2048 pixels per edge and 24 million total frame pixels.
Enter a target such as 256 KB, set the maximum width and colors, and choose whether dimensions may shrink further.
Compare the animations, review the actual byte count and target status, then download the result. One KB here equals 1024 bytes.
About this tool
Set a target in KB for a GIF upload limit, then compare the original and compressed animations. The result reports exact bytes and whether it meets your chosen target.
Compression reduces palette colors and can reduce pixel dimensions. It retains frame order, delays and loop settings. Small targets can visibly reduce detail; the tool reports when it cannot reach a target instead of marking an oversized file as successful.
Yes. All frames, frame delays and repeat settings are retained. The palette and dimensions can change; frames are not discarded to reach the target.
No. Long or detailed animations may stay above the limit. Enable smaller dimensions or increase the target, then check the measured output size.
The original may already use more efficient frame optimizations. If it already meets your requirements and is smaller, keep the original. This tool shows both file sizes.
