About this tool
IconVault's Compress GIF tool shrinks heavy animated GIFs with four independent levers: a smaller color palette (256 down to 32), frame dropping that keeps every 2nd, 3rd or 4th frame while the total duration stays the same, a lossy slider that treats near-identical pixels as unchanged via transparent diff frames, and a size slider, plus optional Bayer dithering for smoother gradients.
It is free and runs 100% in your browser, with an animated preview of the result and honest before and after sizes so you can see exactly what each setting costs. Your GIF never leaves your device. Go Pro for unlimited runs across all 50+ IconVault tools.
