Turn a GIF into images
Extracting frames is useful for grabbing the perfect still from a reaction GIF, building a sprite sheet, editing frames one by one in Photoshop or another editor, or reviewing a screen recording step by step. Many GIFs store only the changed part of each frame; this extractor rebuilds every frame in full so each image looks exactly like the GIF at that moment.
PNG or JPG?
- PNG – lossless and keeps transparency. Best for stickers, logos, pixel art and further editing.
- JPG – smaller files, no transparency (a white background is added). Good for photos and sharing.

GIF frame extractor – FAQ
How do I extract frames from a GIF?
Upload the GIF above. All frames appear below the preview. Select the ones you want and click “Download selected frames” to get them as PNG or JPG images in a ZIP file.
How do I save one frame of a GIF as an image?
Click the ↓ button under that frame to download it, or select only that frame and click “Download selected frames”.
Can I convert a GIF to PNG?
Yes. Choose PNG as the image format. Each frame becomes a separate PNG, with transparency preserved.
Can I convert a GIF to JPG?
Yes. Choose JPG. Transparent areas are filled with white because JPG does not support transparency.
Are the frames full size?
Yes. Every frame is rebuilt in full at the original GIF size, exactly as it appears when the GIF plays.
How are the files named?
Files are numbered in order, like mygif-frame-001.png, mygif-frame-002.png, so they stay sorted.
Is the GIF frame extractor free?
Yes. It is 100% free with no watermark, no sign-up and no daily limit.
Can I extract GIF frames on my phone?
Yes. Open this page in Safari or Chrome on your iPhone or Android phone, tap “Choose GIF”, edit it and tap “Download GIF” or “Share / Save to Photos”. On a computer you can also click “Upload from phone” and scan the QR code to send a GIF from your phone.
Is my GIF uploaded to a server?
No. Your GIF is opened and edited entirely inside your browser, so it never leaves your device. The only exception is the optional “Upload from phone” QR feature: the file you send is held temporarily so your computer can pick it up, then deleted as soon as it is received (anything left over is purged automatically within 24 hours).
How do I turn the frames back into a GIF?
Use the GIF maker: select the images and it combines them into a new animated GIF.
