Width

Smaller width and fewer frames make much smaller GIFs.

Frames per second

The first time you use a video tool, your browser downloads the video engine (about 32 MB, once). Processing happens on your device, so long or 4K videos can take a few minutes — keep this tab open.

Frequently asked questions

How do I make a GIF from part of a video?

Enter the start time (in seconds) and the length. For example, start 12 and length 4 makes a 4-second GIF from 0:12 to 0:16.

How can I make my GIF smaller?

GIFs get big quickly. Use a shorter length (2–6 seconds), Small or Medium width and 8–12 fps for files that are easy to share.

Is my video uploaded?

No. The GIF is created in your browser and your video never leaves your device.

Why do GIF colors look different from the video?

GIFs can only show 256 colors per frame. We build a custom color palette for each clip to keep colors as close as possible, but very colorful scenes may show slight banding.
