Crop an animated GIF and keep it moving. Load a GIF, frame the part you want, and export a new animated GIF — or grab a single still frame. Everything runs in your browser.
Drop a GIF to crop
Animated or static GIF. It is decoded, cropped, and re-encoded right here — nothing is uploaded.
Most “GIF croppers” only save one frame. This one decodes every frame, crops them all, and rebuilds an animated GIF.
Crop is applied to all frames and re-encoded with the original timing and loop, so the result still moves.
Drag the box on the first frame and lock a ratio. What you frame is what every frame is cropped to.
Export a new animated GIF, or a single still frame as a transparent PNG when you only need a poster image.
Because the whole job — decode, crop, re-encode — runs in your browser with no server, a few things are worth knowing:
GIF cropping covers a surprising range of small jobs. The most common:
Animated exports keep the original timing and loop; still exports keep transparency. Either way the GIF is decoded, cropped and rebuilt on your device, so nothing is uploaded and it works offline.
Yes. The cropper decodes every frame, crops them all to your selection, and re-encodes a new animated GIF that keeps the motion and timing. You can also export a single still frame as PNG if you prefer.
This page loads its own GIF engine that decodes the frames, crops each one, and rebuilds a GIF (palette + LZW) entirely on your device. Nothing is uploaded, so even private GIFs stay local.
You can crop to any ratio (1:1, 4:5, 16:9, 9:16, 3:2) and the output keeps that shape. For a round still image, use the circle option on the circle cropper.
Re-encoding happens frame by frame in your browser, so a GIF with many frames, a large size, or thousands of colors takes longer and uses more memory. A tighter crop and fewer frames encode faster.
The encoder builds an optimized palette (up to 256 colors). Photographic GIFs may shift slightly in color; flat graphics usually stay identical. Cropping to a smaller area generally reduces the file size.
No. Decoding, cropping and encoding all run in your browser; the GIF never leaves your device.
