Free Online GIF to BMP Converter

Convert GIF images to BMP (Bitmap) format with this free online tool. Whether you have a static or animated GIF, our converter extracts the image data into an uncompressed BMP file for maximum compatibility with legacy software and systems.

GIF vs. BMP: Key Differences

GIF is a palettized format limited to 256 colors per frame, commonly used for simple animations and web graphics. BMP is an uncompressed raster format that stores raw pixel data and is supported by virtually every image viewer and editor ever made. Converting GIF to BMP is useful when you need to process GIF images in older applications, embedded systems, or any software that requires raw bitmap input.

How to Convert GIF to BMP

  1. Upload your GIF file – Select a static or animated GIF from your device.
  2. Click "Convert to BMP!" – The conversion is processed instantly.
  3. Download the BMP file(s) – For animated GIFs, each frame is converted separately.

Important Notes

  • Animated GIFs – Each frame is extracted as a separate BMP file.
  • Color depth – While GIF uses 256 colors, the BMP output supports full 24-bit color.
  • Transparency – BMP does not support transparency; transparent areas are filled with white.
  • Free and unlimited – No watermarks, no registration required.
