Convert any short video clip into an animated GIF. Trim the length, set the frame rate, and choose the output width. Perfect for reaction GIFs, product demos, and tutorial snippets.
GIF size depends on three things
- Duration
- Longer clips = more frames = bigger file. Keep under 5 seconds for chat use.
- Frame rate (FPS)
- 10–15 FPS is plenty for most GIFs. 24+ FPS balloons the file size.
- Width
- Halve the width, quarter the file size. 480px wide is ideal for chat apps.

Frequently asked questions
What video formats work?
MP4, WebM, MOV, and AVI are supported.
Why is my GIF file so large?
GIFs store every frame uncompressed. Shorten the clip, reduce FPS to 10–12, and resize to 480px width for much smaller files.
Is there a video length limit?
For best results stay under 30 seconds. Very long clips produce GIFs tens of MB in size.
Does conversion happen in my browser?
Yes, it uses ffmpeg.wasm running in your browser. Your videos never leave your device.
