FAQ
GIF background remover questions
How do I remove the background from a GIF?
Upload your GIF, select Remove background, then preview and download the result. The tool automatically detects the dominant border color and removes matching pixels connected to the image edge.
Can I remove a white background from a GIF?
Yes. White is suitable when it forms a solid background visible along the GIF edges. White details in the subject may also be removed if they connect to the background.
Can I make an animated GIF transparent and keep it animated?
The output remains an animated GIF. Frame timing and looping are preserved where possible. GIF transparency is binary, so soft or antialiased edges may show a slight halo.
Does this work with moving or complex backgrounds?
Solid-color backgrounds are processed for free. Complex backgrounds are detected before processing and require Google sign-in and credits for AI processing: 1 credit covers a GIF of up to 30 frames, plus 1 credit for every extra 60 frames (rounded up).
