GIF (an old format for icons and short animations) and ICO (the Windows icon format used for favicons). This free tool converts GIF to ICO directly in your browser, so your file never leaves your device. No install and no sign-up needed.
Batch conversion, ZIP download and quality control
- Convert many files at once — drop or pick several GIF files and they are converted one after another.
- When you convert two or more files, the results are bundled into a single ZIP so you download everything in one click.
- Adjust quality and size: lower the quality or resize to make the ICO files smaller. The setting applies to every file in the batch.

Frequently asked questions
Is my GIF file uploaded when I convert it to ICO?＋
No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser using your device, so your file is never sent to any server.
Will the quality drop when I convert GIF to ICO?＋
For most images the result looks the same. GIF and ICO are both well suited to this conversion.
Can I convert several GIF files to ICO at once?＋
Yes. Add multiple files and they are converted one by one in your browser. A single file downloads directly; two or more are packed into one ZIP. If one file fails, the others still convert.
Is it free? Do I need to sign up?＋
Yes, it is completely free — no sign-up, no install and no watermark.
Is there a file size limit?＋
You can convert files up to 30 MB. Everything is processed on your device, so very large files depend on your available memory.
Can I convert the other way, from ICO back to GIF?＋
That direction is not available right now. GIF can still be converted to several other formats.
