Questions
What is a boomerang GIF?
It plays forwards, then backwards, then loops, so the motion never jumps back to the start. The result is about twice as long as the original.
Is there a limit?
Reversing keeps every frame in memory, so very long or large GIFs can be too big (the page says so). Resize or compress them first.
Is there a size limit?
Up to 200 MB per file on a computer (50 MB on a phone). Every frame is unpacked while the GIF is processed, so very long or very large animations need a lot of memory; those limits keep it working on most devices.
Are my GIFs uploaded anywhere?
No. Your GIFs are opened and processed on your device, and the results are saved straight back to it. Nothing is uploaded. How to check.
Is it free? Do I need an account?
It is free to use and there is nothing to sign up for. There are no watermarks and no daily limits.
