Technical details

Animated GIFs store a sequence of paletted frames with disposal rules. A parser reconstructs each full canvas state so exports match what you see during playback.

Frames are encoded as PNG and bundled with JSZip entirely in-browser. Long GIFs produce many files - extraction time grows with frame count.

GIF Frame Extractor FAQ

Do you upload my GIF?

No. All processing happens locally in your browser. Your files are never uploaded to a server.

Is timing preserved?

We extract still frames; timing metadata is not written into the PNGs.

Why a ZIP?

It is the simplest way to download dozens of frames at once from the browser.

What about huge GIFs?

They may be slow or memory-heavy. Prefer shorter clips when possible.
