Frequently asked questions
How long can the GIF be?
Up to 30 seconds. GIFs get large quickly, so shorter clips, a lower frame rate and a smaller width keep the file small.
How do I get a good-looking GIF?
The tool builds a custom colour palette for your clip, which looks much better than a generic one. For smaller files, use 10 fps and 320 px wide.
Are my files uploaded anywhere?
No. Video to GIF runs entirely in your browser. Your files are processed on your device and are never sent to a server.
Is there a file size limit?
No fixed limit. The only limit is your device's memory. Very large files work best in a desktop browser.
Is Video to GIF really free?
Yes. There's no account and no watermark. A short optional ad, or a 20-second wait, unlocks each download. That's how we keep it free.
Does it work offline?
Once the page has loaded, processing happens locally, so it keeps working even if your connection drops.
