Is my video uploaded to a server?

No. The entire conversion runs in your browser on your own device, so your video is never uploaded.

Which video formats can I convert?

You can convert MP4, MOV, and WebM clips. The output is always an animated GIF.

Why is a short clip recommended?

GIFs store every frame as an image, so long or high-resolution clips create very large files and use a lot of memory. Trimming keeps the result manageable.

How do fps and width affect the GIF?

A higher frame rate looks smoother, and a larger width keeps more detail — but both increase the file size. Lower values make a smaller GIF.

Why is desktop recommended?

Decoding video and building a GIF is memory-intensive. A desktop handles longer or higher-resolution clips far better than most phones.

Will the GIF have sound?

No. The GIF format does not support audio, so the result is silent. Use a video-to-MP3 tool if you need the sound separately.

Do I need to install anything or sign up?

No. It runs in a modern browser with WebCodecs support — no installation, no account, and no watermark.

The video is decoded with WebCodecs, frames are drawn on a canvas, and the GIF is assembled entirely in your browser — nothing is uploaded to any server, and we never see or store your files. We collect only anonymous, aggregated usage statistics (such as whether a conversion succeeds) to improve the tool, never your video, filenames, or any personal data.

Verify it yourself: Open your browser DevTools → Network tab and run the tool: no request ever carries your file. Everything happens on your device.
