How to resize a GIF
- Choose a GIF, or drop it on the box above.
- Type a new width or height, scale it by percent, or pick a preset such as a Twitch emote or Discord emoji.
- Press Resize GIF, check the preview and download it.
Getting a clean result
- Shrinking works best. Every frame is scaled with smoothing, so edges stay clean.
- Enlarging cannot add detail that was never there. A small GIF made bigger looks soft.
- Square presets on a GIF that is not square will stretch it. Crop it square first, or turn off the aspect-ratio lock and accept the stretch.
- Making a GIF smaller in pixels also makes the file smaller. To hit an exact file size, use the GIF Compressor.

Questions
Does it keep the animation?
Yes. Every frame is resized and the timing of each frame is kept, so the GIF plays exactly as before.
Is my GIF uploaded?
No. The resizing happens in your browser, and the file never leaves your device.
