This online utility lets you check the loop count of any GIF file. It finds out whether it plays endlessly or stops after a specific number of repetitions, shows the duration of one complete animation loop, and lists the total number of frames and their precise display times (delays). You can also watch the GIF using its built‑in loop settings and stop the playback at any moment. Created by GIF experts from team Browserling.

This is a browser-based tool that allows you to check the loop count of any GIF file. The loop count is a key property of the GIF format: it determines how many times the animation repeats before stopping. For example, a loop count of "0" means the GIF will play endlessly until you stop it or leave the page. A finite loop count (any whole number, such as 1, 2, 3, and so on) means the GIF will repeat exactly that many times and then stop on its final frame. Along with the loop count, the tool calculates the total duration of one complete animation loop. This is the time that passes from the beginning of the first frame to the end of the last frame, after which the next loop starts (if one exists). The program also shows the total number of frames that make up the animation and provides a complete list of frame delays, indicating how long each frame remains visible. By default, once the GIF is loaded, it automatically plays in the preview window and repeats according to the loop count embedded in the file. Using the available playback options, you can stop the GIF on any frame you choose, as well as restart the animation once it finishes after completing a finite number of loops. If you want to change the number of times a GIF loops, for example, to make an animation play continuously or stop after a single run, you can use the Change GIF Loop Count tool. If you need extended technical information, such as palette details, transparency structure, or overall metadata inspection, you can also explore the Analyze a GIF tool. Gifabulous!

In this example, we load a timelapse GIF showing a view of Prague and let the tool identify how many times the animation repeats. The tool detects that the animation is set to loop endlessly (loop count 0), with a total cycle length of 1.92 seconds across 16 frames. (Source: Pexels.)
This example shows a GIF from Metal Slug 3, where the Elephant Slug launches a fireball from its trunk. The analysis shows a loop count of 3, meaning the animation plays three times before stopping. With 48 frames at 60ms each, the total loop length is 2.88 seconds. (Source: SNK.)
In this example, we upload a static GIF that has only one frame. Because there are no extra frames to switch between, animation settings don't matter here: the loop count is not present because there are no multiple frames to cycle through. Since the GIF always shows the same single frame (which is both the first and the last), the animation loop length and the frame delay are both consistently displayed as 0 seconds. (Source: Pexels.)
