Reduce GIF file size by scaling down dimensions and skipping frames. Browser-based.
Reduce GIF file size by scaling down dimensions, skipping frames, and reducing color quality. The tool decodes the GIF frame-by-frame using Canvas, applies your compression settings, and re-encodes it as an optimized GIF using gif.js.
It depends on your settings. Scaling to 50% and keeping every 2nd frame can reduce file size by 60-80%. Reducing quality further helps even more.
Keeping every 2nd frame usually looks fine. Every 3rd or 4th frame may look noticeably choppy but gives much smaller files.
This tool is for GIF files only. Use our Video to GIF tool first to convert videos, then compress the result here.
