Your files stay on this device. Nothing is uploaded.
Chat and forum GIFs should stay light: 320 pixels wide at 10 frames per second gives a few hundred kilobytes per second of video. Trim the clip to the exact moment for the smallest file. Runs on your device.
How it works
- Drop a video.
- Set start, duration, width and fps.
- Convert and download the GIF.
This tool runs entirely in your browser. Your files are never uploaded, so there is no size limit and it works offline once loaded.
Common situations
Frequently asked questions
Is it really free and private?
Yes. Everything runs in your browser with open-source code; nothing is uploaded. No account, no watermark, no file-size limit other than your device's memory.
Why is my GIF so large?
GIF is an inefficient format. Keep clips under 10 seconds, width under 600 px and 12 fps or less. For sharing, MP4 is far smaller.
