Compress a GIF to a 1MB target for small embeds, profile use, or lightweight sharing. Strict targets may reduce colors, frames, or dimensions.

Built for 1MB GIFs

Start from the upload limit, then adjust only when the result needs it.

Direct size control

Start from a specific KB or MB target and see whether the compressed GIF lands below it.

Clear quality trade-offs

Strict targets may require fewer colors, smaller dimensions, or fewer frames. The tool reports the result.

Private by default

Compression runs in your browser, so the source GIF does not need to be uploaded to a server.

Frequently asked

Does this upload my GIF?
No. The compression flow is designed to run locally in your browser.
Why is 1MB hard for some GIFs?
GIF files store animation frames inefficiently, so long or high-resolution animations may need trimming before they fit under 1MB.
