Video to GIF Converter
Turn a clip of any video into a looping GIF for a post, a reply or a sticker. The converter below starts on GIF for social and runs in your browser, so the video is never uploaded.
Drop videos, sounds or pictures here, or
Up to 20 files, 1 GB each. Nothing is uploaded: every file is converted on this device.
Make a GIF from a video
- Press Choose files and pick your video: MP4, MOV, WebM and most others work.
- The preset is GIF for social: 480 px wide, 12 frames a second, with a shared palette. For a chat sticker, choose GIF sticker: 320 px and 10 frames a second, small enough to send.
- To keep only part of the video, set Start (seconds) and End (seconds).
- Press the Convert button and download the GIF when it is ready.
Questions
- Is the GIF converter free?
- Yes. There is no watermark, no account to make and no quota.
- Is my video uploaded?
- No. FFmpeg, the converter, runs in your browser on this device, so the video never leaves it.
- Why is my GIF so large?
- A GIF stores every frame as a picture, so long or wide clips grow fast. Keep it to a few seconds, or choose GIF sticker for a smaller file.
- Does a GIF have sound?
- No. A GIF is a looping animation without sound. For a short clip with sound, convert it to MP4 instead.
