Free converter
Anyfile converts a GIF image to a BMP image for free, right in your browser: the file is never uploaded.
Files are converted in your browser and never uploaded. By using Anyfile you agree to the Terms of Use.
| Quality | Nothing lost: BMP keeps every pixel |
|---|---|
| Transparency | Transparent areas are filled with white |
| Animation | Only the first frame |
| File size | Usually larger: BMP compresses less tightly than GIF |
When to use BMP: Older Windows software, simple paint programs and tools that expect raw, uncompressed pixels.
.gif
An image format introduced by CompuServe in 1987. Each frame uses a palette of up to 256 colours, and a file can hold several frames that play as a short loop.
Simple looping animations, reaction clips and small graphics with flat colour.
Opens in every browser, messaging app and image viewer
About GIF files.bmp
Microsoft’s bitmap format from the early days of Windows. It usually stores pixels uncompressed, so quality is exact but files are large.
Older Windows software, simple paint programs and tools that expect raw, uncompressed pixels.

No. The file is read and converted by your own browser, and nothing is sent to a server. You can check: open your browser’s developer tools, go to Network, and convert a file. No upload appears.
No: BMP holds a single picture, so only the first frame is kept.
BMP can’t hold transparency, so they’re filled with white.
Yes. Drop them together and you get one ZIP with every BMP inside.
