Free online JPEG to GIF converter. Convert JPEG to GIF and get a GIF that opens in every browser, email and chat app. Runs in your browser: nothing uploaded, no sign-up.

Runs in your browser · Nothing uploaded

Works with: Photoshop · GIMP · Canva · Windows Photos · macOS Preview · web browsers

Drop several files at once to convert the whole folder in one pass. Got a different format? A PNG, JPG, HEIC, PDF, SVG or DXF still comes out as GIF.

How it works

  1. Upload your picture

    Drag in one image or a whole folder. Nothing is uploaded: the picture is decoded and re-encoded in this tab.

  2. Pick the quality

    PNG is always lossless. For JPEG and WebP the quality slider decides the size; the result is shown before you download.

  3. Download

    Same width and height as the original, pixel for pixel, in the new format.

Convert JPEG to GIF in your browser: drop in a JPEG file and download the GIF. The file is converted on your own device and never uploaded, so this jpeg to gif converter is safe for private and confidential files.

JPEG is the photo format every camera, phone and website reads, compressed to keep files small. GIF is the old web format for simple graphics and short animations, limited to 256 colours.

The picture keeps its pixel size, and you see the result before you download it.

Why it matters

Every pixel kept

The picture is not resized, sharpened or smoothed. It comes out at exactly its original width and height, so no detail is lost on the way.

Transparency handled properly

PNG, WebP, GIF and ICO keep the alpha channel. JPEG and BMP cannot hold one, so transparent areas are filled white rather than turning black.

Colour as it was

Colours are carried across as they are, with no filter, no tone shift and no added compression on a lossless format.

Nothing leaves your machine

No upload, no queue and no copy of your pictures on a server: the conversion runs in your browser.

Questions

How do I convert JPEG to GIF?

Drop your JPEG file on this page, check the preview, and press Download. The GIF is made in a few seconds, with no sign-up.

Is my JPEG file uploaded anywhere?

No. The jpeg to gif conversion runs in your browser, on your own device. The file never leaves it.

Does converting lose quality?

Not to PNG, TIFF, BMP or lossless WebP: those keep every pixel. JPEG and lossy WebP discard some detail to make the file smaller; at the default 92% quality that is not visible, and you can raise it to 100%.

Will my picture keep its size?

Yes. The width and height in pixels are exactly those of the original.

Is transparency kept?

Into PNG, WebP, GIF and ICO, yes. JPEG and BMP have no transparency, so those areas are filled white.
