HEIC to GIF

Convert HEIC images to GIF online in seconds.

HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) is the format iPhones and iPads use for photos by default since iOS 11; it stores photos at roughly half the size of JPG. GIF plays animations everywhere โ€” chat apps, email, forums and old browsers โ€” without a video player.

GIF has no transparency, so transparent areas of the HEIC are filled with white. GIF stores at most 256 colors, so photos get a reduced palette; upload several images at once to get one animated GIF.

Drop several HEIC files at once to combine them into one animated GIF (half a second per frame). Each file can be up to 20 MB; there's no daily limit and no signup, and uploads are deleted from our servers within 1 hour.
