Frequently asked questions
How do I keep the GIF small?
Use a shorter length, 320–480 px width and 10–15 fps. GIF size grows quickly with every extra second and pixel.
Why does it look better than other converters?
Each GIF gets its own optimized 256-color palette built from your clip, so colors stay rich and banding is minimal.
Is Video to GIF free?
Yes. Video to GIF is free to use with no sign-up and no watermark.
Are my files uploaded to your server?
No. All processing happens locally in your browser using JavaScript and WebAssembly. Your files never leave your device, which also makes it fast and private.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes. It works in any modern browser on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android and iPhone. Very large files may be slow on older phones.
