APNG encoding (needs UPNG WASM).
All processing happens in your browser — files never upload anywhere.
GIF to APNG converts your Graphics Interchange Format (.gif) files to APNG (.apng) directly in your browser using the browser's built-in Canvas 2D encoder. No signup, no watermark, no upload — your GIF stays on your device from start to finish. APNG is typically used for APNG files, and Toolspace's converter preserves the source at the highest quality the target format allows.
