Export every frame as a separate image (ZIP) or as one sprite sheet. Edits from the other tabs are applied to the frames.

Reuses pixels that barely change between frames. Higher values = smaller file, slight artefacts.

Browsers treat delays under 20 ms as 100 ms, so the fastest reliable speed is 20 ms per frame (50 fps).

How to use GIF Speed Changer

  1. 1

    Upload your GIF

    Drop the animated GIF you want to speed up or slow down.

  2. 2

    Set the speed

    Choose a multiplier from 0.25× to 4×, or give every frame the same delay in milliseconds.

  3. 3

    Download

    Preview the new speed and download the GIF.

Speed up or slow down a GIF

Every GIF frame has a delay that tells the browser how long to show it. This tool changes those delays without re-recording the animation, so quality stays the same. Choose 2× to make it twice as fast, 0.5× for slow motion, or set one exact delay for every frame.

More timing options

  • Per-frame delays: click any frame on the timeline to change just its delay, for example to pause on the last frame.
  • Loop count: loop forever, play once or a fixed number of times.
  • Reverse and ping-pong: play the GIF backwards or forwards and then backwards for a smooth boomerang.

Why some GIFs cannot go faster

Browsers treat delays under 20 ms (and some under 60 ms) as 100 ms, which actually makes the GIF slower. The fastest reliable speed is 20 ms per frame, or 50 frames per second, so the tool never goes below that. To speed up further, drop frames in the GIF Compressor.

Frequently asked questions

How do I make a GIF faster?
Upload it and choose a speed above 1×, such as 1.5× or 2×, then download.
Why does my very fast GIF play slowly?
Browsers slow down delays under 20 ms to 100 ms. The tool keeps every delay at 20 ms or more so the GIF really plays fast.
Can I make a GIF play only once?
Yes. Set Loop to Play once in the Speed tab.
Is my GIF uploaded to a server?
No. The GIF is decoded, edited and re-encoded entirely in your browser. Nothing is uploaded, so it is private and works even offline once the page has loaded.
Is there a file size or frame limit?
There is no upload limit because nothing is uploaded. Very large GIFs (many hundreds of frames at high resolution) can use a lot of memory; up to 1,000 frames are loaded.
Does it keep transparency?
Yes. Transparent GIFs stay transparent, and the decoder handles all GIF disposal methods so frames are rebuilt exactly as browsers show them.
