Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about the free online gif frame counter.

Yes. A plain GIF with a single image, or even a JPEG or PNG chosen by mistake, is reported honestly as one frame.

Some editors merge duplicate frames, while this tool counts every image block actually present in the GIF file.
