Frequently Asked Questions

How does GIF compression work here?

The GIF is decoded frame by frame, the color palette is re-quantized at your chosen quality, optional frame skipping merges delays so playback speed is unchanged, and the result is re-encoded with an optimized color table.

Will compression change the animation speed?

No. When frames are skipped, their display time is added to the previous frame, so the total duration and pacing of the animation are preserved.

What settings shrink a GIF the most?

Lowering color quality and capping the max dimension have the biggest impact. Frame skipping helps most on high-frame-rate GIFs. For drastically smaller files, consider converting to animated WebP instead.

Is my GIF uploaded to a server?

No. Decoding and re-encoding run entirely in your browser via WebAssembly. Files never leave your device.
