Skipping frames trades smoothness for size. Color quality alone usually saves 30–60% with no visible motion impact.

Reduce GIF file size (compress)

Skip frames and lower color quality to slim a GIF's file size — and shrink the width at the same time if you like.

Use it to cut the size of a heavy GIF without ruining quality. Dropping frames at intervals and reducing the color count shrinks the file a lot, and reducing the width too helps even more. Perfect for places with upload size limits.

All processing runs in your browser, so the file is never uploaded. To keep quality and only reduce dimensions, use Shrink GIF.

Compressing GIFs — frequently asked

How do I reduce a GIF's file size?

Drop the GIF and adjust the frame-skip ratio and color quality to re-encode it lighter.

Will quality drop a lot?

With moderate settings you can cut size with little visible loss. Use the sliders to balance quality and size.

Is the motion kept?

Skipping frames can make motion slightly choppy. Lower the skip ratio if smoothness matters.

Is the file uploaded?

No. Everything happens inside your browser.
