GIF Splitter
Upload an animated GIF, decode its frames locally in your browser, preview each frame, inspect timing, and download frames as PNG files.
Select an animated GIF. This page uses gifuct-js from CDN to decode actual GIF frames in the browser.

Privacy: GIF decoding runs locally in your browser. No GIF file is stored or transmitted.
How it works
The splitter decodes the selected animated GIF and reconstructs each frame as canvas-rendered image data:
- Read GIF binary: the file is parsed locally in the browser
- Decode frames: each frame patch is decompressed
- Render preview: every frame is drawn to canvas
- Export: each frame can be saved individually as PNG
Examples
- Extract a specific frame from a reaction GIF
- Inspect the frame timing of an animated GIF
- Convert a GIF into a sequence of still images
FAQ
- What does this GIF splitter do?
It decodes an animated GIF in your browser, extracts the frames, previews them, and lets you download each frame as a PNG image.
- Does it upload my GIF?
No. GIF decoding runs locally in the browser and the selected file is not uploaded by this page.
- What format are extracted frames downloaded as?
Frames are exported as PNG files so they can be saved individually after decoding.
- Does it preserve frame timing information?
The tool shows decoded frame delays from the original GIF so you can inspect timing per frame.
- Why does this page use a library?
Animated GIF frame decoding requires specialized binary parsing. This page uses gifuct-js from CDN for real browser-side GIF frame extraction.
