How to Merge GIFs Online
Use this online GIF merger to combine animated GIFs in three steps:
Add Your GIFs
Upload or drag and drop two or more animated GIF files.
Arrange the Combined Frames
Put the frames in the required order and adjust the timing, loop, or text if needed.
Export the Merged GIF
Preview the animation, click “Export GIF,” and download the combined file.
How Does the GIF Merger Work?
The CompressFly GIF merger decodes each uploaded animation into individual frames, then places the frames in one timeline in upload order. Existing frame delays are retained when the GIFs are loaded, and the enabled frames are exported as one animated GIF.
GIF merging runs directly in your browser. Your files are not uploaded to a server, and the combined GIF downloads from the browser to your device.
What "directly in your browser" means
- Your animated GIF files are not uploaded to a server.
- GIF decoding, frame editing, and merging run locally on your device.
- The combined GIF downloads directly from your browser.

Merge GIFs FAQs
How do I merge GIFs online?
Use this online GIF merger to combine animated GIFs in three steps: 1. Upload or drag and drop two or more animated GIF files. 2. Arrange the combined frames and adjust the timing, loop, or text if needed. 3. Preview the animation, click “Export GIF,” and download the merged GIF.
Can I combine two or more animated GIFs into one?
Yes. Add two or more animated GIF files, arrange their frames in the playback order you want, and export the enabled frames as one GIF animation.
Will the GIFs play one after another?
Yes. The frames from each uploaded GIF are added to one timeline in upload order, so one animation plays after the previous animation. You can rearrange individual frames before export.
Can I combine GIFs side by side?
No. This GIF combiner joins frames into one sequential animation. It does not place separate GIFs side by side, stack them vertically, or overlay one animation on another.
Do the GIFs need to have the same dimensions?
No. The merged GIF uses one shared canvas. Choose the canvas dimensions, then use the contain, cover, or fill setting and alignment controls to place frames of different sizes.
Are the original frame delays retained?
Yes. Existing frame delays are retained when animated GIFs are loaded. You can keep them, change individual frame delays, or apply one global delay to all frames before exporting.
Can I reorder or remove frames before merging GIFs?
Yes. Drag frames into a new order, or remove, skip, enable, and duplicate individual frames before creating the combined GIF.
Can I add text to the combined GIF?
Yes. Add one or more text layers, customize their appearance and position, and choose which frames display each text layer before export.
Is the GIF merger free?
Yes. The GIF merger is free to use, with no registration or credit card required.
Are my GIF files uploaded to a server?
No. GIF merging runs locally in your browser, so your animated GIF files are not uploaded to a server.
