About the formats

GIF (Graphics Interchange Format, 1987) is one of the oldest web formats. It is limited to 256 colours per frame but supports simple transparency and animation, which is why it is still used for short loops and memes.

TIFF (Tagged Image File Format, 1986) is a high-quality format used in printing, scanning and professional photography. It stores images without quality loss and can hold several pages in one file. TIF and TIFF are the same format with a different file extension.

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert GIF to TIFF?

Drop your GIF files into the box above (or tap Select files), check the options, then press Convert. Each TIFF downloads on its own, or you can download them all as one ZIP file.

Are my files uploaded anywhere?

No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser on your own device. Your GIF files are never sent to a server, so they stay private, and it works even on a slow connection once the page has loaded.

Is there a limit on how many GIF files I can convert?

No. Convert as many as you like, for free, without signing up. Very large batches are processed one after another so your browser stays responsive.

Will I lose quality converting to TIFF?

No. TIFF is lossless, so the converted image keeps every pixel of the original.

Does it work on iPhone and Android?

Yes. It works in Safari, Chrome, Firefox and Edge on phones, tablets and computers. Nothing to install.
