HOW IT WORKS

Browser-first GIF processing.

GifShaper reads your file on this device, decodes the animation, applies the selected change, and rebuilds a new output. The source file is not sent to a conversion server by the tool.

GIF is a palette-based animation format, so rebuilding can slightly change colors. Use 256 colors when visual detail matters most, or fewer colors when file size matters more.

PRACTICAL LIMITS

Built for ordinary web GIFs.

  • GIF inputs are capped at 50 MB.
  • Very large frame counts can use substantial browser memory.
  • Processing speed depends on your device.
  • Keep the tab open until the output is finished.
FAQ

Before you process.

What is a transparent GIF?

It is a GIF where selected pixels have no visible background, allowing the page or app behind the GIF to show through.

Which color should I choose?

Choose the flat background color you want removed. The top-left shortcut often works for simple stickers and animations.

Does GIF support partial transparency?

Classic GIF transparency is effectively on or off per pixel, not smooth alpha transparency like PNG or WebP.
