Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about the free online gif frame counter.
Choose the GIF file and the tool walks its block structure, then shows the number of image
frames it contains.
It reads the header and skips over the compressed pixel data instead of decompressing it, so
big files stay quick.
The loop count comes from the Netscape extension: zero means forever, a number means that
many plays, and not set means once.
Yes. A plain GIF with a single image, or even a JPEG or PNG chosen by mistake, is reported
honestly as one frame.
No. Only the structure is read here, so this tool reports frame counts without decoding the
LZW compressed image data.
Some editors merge duplicate frames, while this tool counts every image block actually
present in the GIF file.
No. The file is read straight from your disk into the browser tab and is never sent to any
server.
Yes, it is completely free with no account, no sign-up and no limit on how many GIF files you
count.
