GIF to AVIF, in your browser

GIF is an old, inefficient format capped at 256 colors. When you want a tiny, high-quality still from a GIF for a modern website, converting its frame to AVIF gives you full color and excellent compression in one of the smallest formats available. Mynify does it on your device with a WASM encoder — nothing uploaded.

First frame → tiny AVIF

AVIF here is a still format, so Mynify takes the GIF’s first frame and encodes it as AVIF — typically far smaller than the same frame as PNG or JPG, with better quality per byte.

The trade-off

AVIF displays in every current browser but is newer than WebP; some older apps don’t read it. Use it for the web; pick GIF to PNG for maximum compatibility.

Free, unlimited, no signup, no watermark — processed entirely on your device.

Frequently asked questions

Does it keep the animation?

No — AVIF here is a still image, so Mynify converts the GIF's first frame to a compact AVIF. It's ideal for a small, high-quality static picture.

Why AVIF instead of PNG or JPG?

AVIF is far more efficient — a GIF frame as AVIF is typically much smaller than the same frame as PNG or JPG, at similar quality, which is great for the web.

Is my file uploaded?

No — the conversion runs entirely in your browser using a WASM encoder; your image never leaves your device.
