Questions
How long should a GIF be?
A few seconds: GIFs store every frame as a picture, so a 5-second clip at 480 pixels and 12 frames per second is usually 2 to 5 MB. For longer clips, lower the width or frame rate, or save as animated WebP, which is several times smaller.
Which frame rate should I choose?
12 frames per second looks smooth for most clips and keeps files small. Use 20 or 25 for fast motion, 8 for a choppy, retro look or the smallest file.
Can I convert iPhone videos?
Yes, MOV files work. iPhone videos in HEVC need a browser that can decode it: Safari, Edge, and Chrome on most computers do.
Is there sound?
No: GIFs are pictures only. To keep the sound, trim the video with the Video Trimmer instead.
Are my videos uploaded anywhere?
No. Your videos 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.
