Reduce a GIF to the Size You Need, in Your Browser

Type the size you need and let the tool work backwards from it. It starts with a lossless re-pack, which costs nothing in quality, and only then lowers the quality, cuts the palette and, last of all, the width. It stops at the first setting that fits, so you get the best-looking GIF that meets your limit.

Yes, free with no account, and nothing is uploaded. gifsicle is compiled to WebAssembly and runs in your browser, so the GIFs never leave your device.

The tool says so instead of pretending. It hands back the smallest version it managed and tells you that it is still over your limit. A long or wide animation is usually the reason: cut a few seconds off it, or allow a larger size.

Yes. Every frame, its timing and the loop setting are kept. Only how the pixels are stored changes, and the width only if the earlier steps were not enough.

It will not go below 240 px wide, because a narrower GIF stops being worth looking at. Within that limit the saving depends on the GIF: flat graphics shrink a long way on a smaller palette, while a busy video capture resists.

You get the original back untouched. There is no point re-encoding a file that already fits, and re-encoding would only cost quality.

The compressor gives you the controls and you decide how hard to push. This page takes the number you have to meet and finds the settings for you. Use the compressor when you want to judge the result by eye, and this page when a form or an app has given you a hard limit.

There's no fixed limit. Batches of several hundred are common and run in parallel across your CPU cores, so even large batches finish in seconds. It's completely free with no signup.
