Pick a clip, set the smoothness and size: your GIF is ready, with no watermark.
Frames are extracted by your browser's video player and assembled into a GIF, without uploading anything.
| Setting | Effect on the GIF |
|---|---|
| 5 frames/s | Light, choppy look, fine for a tutorial |
| 10 frames/s | Good balance for most uses |
| 15 frames/s | Smooth, but a heavier file |
| 360 px wide | Ideal for messaging apps or social media |
| 640 px wide | Sharper, for a web page or presentation |
GIF size grows fast: each second at 15 frames/s and 640 px can exceed 1 MB. For a messaging app, aim for under 5 seconds at 360 px.
A GIF plays everywhere, automatically and in a loop, with no play button: in an email, documentation, a support ticket or a presentation. It is limited to 256 colours: perfect for an animated screen capture, less so for a landscape with subtle gradients.
No. Conversion happens in your browser; the video never leaves your device.
Some formats, such as the HEVC used by some iPhones, are not played by every browser. Try Chrome or Edge, or first convert the video to MP4 H.264.
Beyond that, the GIF becomes too heavy to be practical and conversion uses a lot of memory. For a longer clip, a short video is more suitable.
