About Animated PNG files
an animated PNG with full colour and transparency
APNG (Animated PNG) extends PNG with animation frames. A viewer that does not support APNG shows its first frame as an ordinary PNG.
Animated stickers and web animations that need more than GIF's 256 colours or smooth transparency; all major browsers display it.
Animated PNG: what conversion changes
Converting Animated PNG re-encodes frames.
Animated PNG: settings to change
Before you convert Animated PNG files, you can adjust: Video codec, Frame rate, Rate control, Width, Quality (CRF), Video bitrate, Resolution, Colours, Height, Scale fit, Dithering, Encoder preset, Audio codec, Audio bitrate, Trim start, Trim duration, and Remove metadata.
Limits of the Animated PNG format
An APNG is usually much larger than a video of the same clip, and it has no sound.
Common questions about Animated PNG
Why won’t my APNG animation play in the app I posted it to? Support outside browsers is patchy, so many platforms silently show only the first frame or nothing at all.
Why convert an animation to APNG? It keeps GIF-style looping but with full colour and transparency, so gradients and photos survive.
