Online batch GIF compressor
This tool accepts up to 10 GIFs per batch, with a maximum of 50 MB per file, and processes the animations locally in the browser one by one. Choose optimization without quality reduction or light, medium, or strong compression; set 16 to 256 colors; and keep the original size, scale to 75%, 50%, or 25%, or enter custom dimensions. Preview results, download them individually, or package the whole batch.
Choose light, medium, or strong compression, and adjust the GIF color count and output dimensions when needed. The original GIF is not overwritten; preview the compressed result and download a new GIF after processing.
How to compress GIF files
1. Upload GIF files: Select one or more GIF files in the upload area, or drag multiple animated GIFs onto the page. Each file can be up to 50 MB, with up to 10 GIFs per batch.
2. Set compression options: Choose the compression level and color count for your purpose. To reduce the canvas at the same time, select a scale or enter custom width and height in the output size settings.
3. Start compression: Click Start compressing all to optimize GIFs locally one by one. Batch progress is displayed, and you can also process the current GIF separately.
4. Download results: Review each animation preview, file size, and status after compression. Download a single GIF or package all compressed results together.
Use cases

Tool advantages

Frequently asked questions
Q: Will GIF compression turn an animation into a static image? A: No. The tool accepts and outputs animated GIFs and normally keeps their animation frames.
Q: Why did the file size not decrease? A: An already optimized GIF, a GIF with few colors, or a small GIF may have little room left. Stronger compression or smaller dimensions usually reduce the size more.
Q: Does compression affect image quality? A: Light compression has a smaller effect. Medium and strong compression can reduce colors or detail, so use the preview to choose a suitable level.
