TGS (Telegram Sticker) is a gzip-compressed Lottie animation format used exclusively for Telegram animated stickers. Each TGS file contains a Lottie JSON animation wrapped in gzip compression, following Telegram's strict sticker guidelines (512x512 max, 3 seconds max, 64KB max).
Authoritative reference: Telegram sticker requirements
TGS files are designed for use within Telegram and are not natively supported outside the platform. Converting to GIF, WebP, or APNG makes your Telegram stickers shareable across any messaging app, social media, or website.
PNG (Portable Network Graphics) provides lossless compression with full alpha channel transparency, making it the go-to format for graphics, screenshots, and images requiring pixel-perfect fidelity. Created in 1996 as a patent-free GIF alternative, PNG uses DEFLATE compression and supports both indexed color (PNG-8) and truecolor with alpha (PNG-24/32). Files are 3-10× larger than equivalent JPEGs but preserve every pixel exactly.

PNG is universally supported and ideal for logos, UI elements, diagrams, and any content where transparency or lossless editing matters. For photographic content without transparency needs, JPEG typically offers better compression efficiency.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does TGS to PNG do?
This converter extracts the first frame of a Telegram TGS animated sticker as a static PNG image. This is useful when you need a thumbnail, preview, or still representation of a sticker for use outside Telegram.
The output is a single high-quality 512x512 PNG file with full alpha transparency support.
Will I get all animation frames?
No, this converter extracts the first frame only as a static PNG. If you need the full animation, use our TGS to GIF, TGS to WebP, or TGS to APNG converters instead.
The first frame is typically the initial state of the sticker animation.
What resolution is the output?
Output is 512x512 pixels, matching the standard Telegram sticker dimensions. The PNG includes full alpha transparency, so the sticker background remains transparent.
Can I convert TGS to PNG in bulk?
Yes — drop up to 50 TGS files at once and we'll extract the first frame from each as a separate PNG. Pro plans support up to 1,000 files per batch with priority processing.
All files are encrypted in transit, processed in the EU, and auto-deleted after 1 hour.
