How to Use the GIF Optimizer

Use this free online GIF Optimizer to compress animated GIFs and reduce file size before sharing, uploading, or publishing them online. Adjust compression, colors, dimensions, FPS, and frame settings, then compare the optimized result before downloading.

  • Upload your GIF by clicking the upload area, dragging and dropping a file, or pasting a GIF from your clipboard.
  • Choose a preset such as Smallest Size, Balanced, Best Quality, or Social GIF for a quick starting point.
  • Reduce colors to make the GIF smaller while keeping the image clear enough for sharing.
  • Adjust lossy compression to shrink the file further when maximum visual detail is not required.
  • Resize the GIF by setting a new width or height, with aspect ratio locking for clean scaling.
  • Lower FPS or skip frames to reduce animation size and improve loading speed.
  • Remove duplicate frames to delete repeated animation frames without changing the visible result.
  • Check the estimated size before export to see the expected file size and savings.
  • Use the comparison slider to compare original and optimized quality before downloading.
  • Download the optimized GIF when the result looks right.
