How to convert MP4 to GIF

  1. Click the box above or drop your MP4 file onto it. It appears in a player.
  2. Set where the GIF starts (pausing the player sets it for you) and how long it lasts, then pick the width and frame rate.
  3. Click Make GIF, check the preview and download it.

Frequently asked questions

Is my MP4 uploaded?

No. The conversion runs in your browser with FFmpeg compiled to WebAssembly. The first use downloads the converter (about 30 MB); your file never leaves your device.

How do I keep the GIF small?

Shorter clips, a smaller width and a lower frame rate all shrink it. GIF files are much larger than the same clip as video.
