    GIFs are an image format that supports short animations and has existed since 1987. They’re great for reacting to a friend’s Discord message, conveying an emotion on Twitter without using written words, or can even be used to create a fun Discord emoji.

    However, their file sizes are often large, which means they can be slow to load on apps like Slack, and saving a number of them can take up quite a bit of space on your computer. Not only that, but having them on a website can have a negative impact on its speed and performance.

    Thankfully, our Bulk GIF Compressor tool helps reduce these file sizes by as much as 90% to make them much easier and quicker to share, use, and open. Whether you want to ensure your favorite GIF works on your Steam profile, or that it loads quickly on your Card, our tool can help.

    The tool is very easy to use, and only takes a few seconds to work its magic.

    How Does It Work?

    Let’s take a closer look at the steps involved with using our Bulk Gif Compressor tool.

    Step 1: Either drag and drop your GIFs into the image area on the tool, or choose a GIF (or GIFs) from your computer directly.

    Step 2: After you’ve added your GIFs, you’ll see them under the “accepted files” header, as well as the total size of all of the GIFs you’ve selected.

    Step 3: You can search through them and remove individual GIFs by pressing the “X” in the blue circle, or click “Remove All” to start entirely from scratch.

    Step 4: If you’re ready to move forward and compress your chosen GIF(s), click “Compress All” and the tool will begin to work.

    Step 5: After a few seconds, you’ll have a list of your compressed GIFs, their total size, and the percentage that our tool reduced them in terms of file size. Click “Download All” to save a folder with all of the compressed GIFs to your computer.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Why do GIFs take more space?

    GIFs take up more space than some other image formats like JPEG because each frame of the GIF is saved as a unique image. GIFs are also larger as they use a compression method that preserves more data, which results in a bigger file.

    What type of compression is used for GIF?

    GIFs use lossless compression, as opposed to the lossy compression that’s used by JPEG and many other image formats.

    Why is GIF a lossless compression?

    GIF is a lossless compression because it retains all of the original file data when compressed, whereas lossy compression permanently deletes some data from images during compression.

    What happens when you compress GIF?

    When you compress a GIF, it’ll usually reduce either the frames or the colors used to make the file smaller.

    How much does a GIF compress a file?

    It varies on a case-by-case basis, but our tool compresses GIFs down as much as 90% compared to their original size.

    How to optimize a GIF?

    If a GIF is too large, consider using our Bulk GIF Compressor tool to reduce its size by as much as 90%. This will help optimize it to ensure it opens and plays as quickly as possible, whether on a website or in a messaging app.
