About this tool
What you provide
- A video file (MP4, MOV, WebM)
- Start and end points chosen on a timeline
- A width of 320, 480 or 640 px and a frame rate of 8, 12 or 15 fps
What you get
- A looping GIF you can preview on the page and download
Limits
- GIFs are capped at 30 seconds.
- The size shown before you export is an estimate, and the tool flags it as large past about 15 MB.
- The conversion runs on your device, so the video is never uploaded.
How to use it
-
Pick your video
Drop a video on the dropzone or tap it to choose one; it loads into a player above the clip and size options.
-
Set the clip
Drag the Start and End handles to the part you want — the selection is held to the 30-second cap the page states.
-
Choose size and frame rate
Under Size pick a width of 320, 480 or 640 and under FPS a rate of 8, 12 or 15; the estimated file size below them updates with each change and is marked large when the settings get heavy.
-
Create and save
Tap Create GIF, then check the looping preview in the page and tap Save / Share.
