JPG to GIF Converter
Turn JPG (JPEG) files into GIF in seconds. Everything happens on your device: nothing is uploaded, and there's no limit.
Your images are processed in this browser tab and never uploaded.
Why convert JPG to GIF?
JPG has no transparency and loses a little quality each time it's re-saved.
GIF is supported by every app and platform, which makes it a safe choice for simple graphics and stickers.
What to expect
- GIF can show at most 256 colours. Logos and graphics look identical; detailed photos may show slight banding.
- Converting to GIF keeps every pixel of your JPG, but it can't restore detail that JPG compression already removed.

About the formats
JPG (JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group), 1992) is the most widely used photo format in the world. It uses lossy compression that throws away detail the eye barely notices, which keeps photos small. JPG and JPEG are the same format: the shorter extension comes from old Windows versions that only allowed three letters.
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.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert JPG to GIF?
Drop your JPG files into the box above (or tap Select files), check the options, then press Convert. Each GIF 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 JPG 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 JPG 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 GIF?
No. GIF 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.
