Video to GIF

Make an animated GIF from any short clip. Choose the start, length, width and smoothness. A smart colour palette keeps it sharp.

—Duration
—GIF size

Your file will appear here.

First use downloads the video engine once (about 31 MB). After that it’s cached and starts instantly.

Keeping GIFs small

GIFs get big fast: every frame is a full image with only 256 colours. For sharing in chats and on websites, keep clips to 2–6 seconds, use 480 px wide and 12 fps. For anything longer, a short muted MP4 looks better and is far smaller. Most sites autoplay those just like GIFs.

How to use the Video to GIF

  1. Choose a video file.
  2. Set the start time, length, width and smoothness.
  3. Click Create GIF, preview it, and download.

Frequently asked questions

Is my video uploaded to a server?

No. The conversion runs inside your browser using a WebAssembly version of FFmpeg, the same engine professional video tools use. Your file never leaves your device.

Why is my GIF so large?

GIF is an old, inefficient format. Reduce the width, frame rate or length. Halving the width cuts the size by about 75%.

Is there a watermark?

No watermark, ever.
