BMP to GIF Converter

Summary

Upload a BMP file and download a GIF-compatible image — converted instantly in your browser with no file upload.

How it works

1. Select or drag a BMP image onto the upload area.
2. The browser decodes the BMP file using its built-in image decoder.
3. The Canvas API captures the pixel data and a GIF encoder converts it to GIF format.
4. A live preview and file size comparison appear immediately.
5. Click "Download GIF" to save the converted image to your device.

Use cases
