    About GIF frame splitter

    Upload an animated GIF, WEBP or APNG and save each frame as a separate PNG. It is useful for picking a perfect still, editing single frames or reusing parts of a sprite. Some GIFs store only the changed pixels, so frames are rebuilt in full.

    How to use GIF frame splitter

    1. Add your animated GIF, WEBP or APNG file.
    2. Choose which frames to keep in the Keep option.
    3. Run the tool and download the frames as PNG images.

    Frequently asked questions

    Why are some frames the same?

    Animations often hold a pose over several frames, or repeat frames to control timing. The splitter exports them as they are in the file.

    What can I do with the extracted frames?

    Use them to edit a single frame, build a sprite sheet, pick a still image or rebuild the animation with a different speed in the GIF maker.

    Will transparency be kept in the PNG frames?

    PNG supports transparency, so transparent areas of the animation can stay transparent. Some GIFs build frames on top of each other, which may make a frame look partial.

    Is GIF frame splitter free?

    Yes. GIF frame splitter on Toolipedia is free to use, with no sign-up and no watermark.

    Is it safe to use?

    Yes. Your files travel over an encrypted connection, are processed automatically, and are deleted as soon as the result is ready. Nobody looks at them.

    Does it work on my phone?

    Yes. It works in any modern browser on Android and iPhone, as well as on tablets and computers. There's nothing to install.

    How big can my files be?

    Up to 200 MB in total. You can add several files at once.
