Video to GIF Converter

Free, unlimited online video (.mp4 or .mov) to GIF (.gif) converter

No file size limits, sign up, credit cards, or tracking.

Frame rates above 10-15 can take a lot longer and require more computer resources.

How to Convert Videos to GIFs


  1. Click the Upload Video button.

  2. Select your .mp4 or .mov video file.

  3. Configure the frame rate. Usually around 10-15 is a safe bet. Values above 15 frames per second are prone to longer conversion times.

  4. Set the quality. Usually "Low Quality" provides the fastest conversion times.

  5. Press Convert to GIF and observe the real-time progress bar as it updates you on the progress of your conversion.

  6. When the conversion finishes, click the Download Image button to save your image. Note that if you do not download your GIF and then leave the page or convert a new image, it will need to be converted again.

  7. Enjoy your GIF!

FAQ and Description

Our conversion tool is free, fast, and unlimited. Convert as many files as you want, with no limit on file size or number of conversions.

    FAQ:

  • What is this tool and what does it do?

    • This tool is a free, online converter that will convert a video file (usually .mp4 or .mov files) into animated image (.gif) files.

  • Is this tool free?

    • Yes, this tool is completely free.

  • If this is free, how do you make money?

    • Currently, we don't. In the future, we plan to add a few ads that do not affect the user experience. We do not store any user data on our servers.

  • What can I do with my GIF?

    • GIFs are image files that can be played as an animation, similar to a video. They are useful for sharing in situations where images are more appropriate than videos, such as in PowerPoint presentations, posts on social media sites like X or Facebook, or in text messages and emails. They often loop repeatedly and feature a signature "choppy" feel, although they can be customized to be as smooth and high quality as videos.

    For more information about using GIFs in PowerPoint presentations, refer to the Microsoft Support article on the topic.

  • Why should I use this tool over the millions of other free ones out there?

    • Our tool is very fast and completely free, offering no paid plans at this time or limits on conversions or file size. We offer a clean, streamlined experience free of clutter. We do not ask you for your email or to sign up for an account and we do not store your images anywhere. Also, our tool works on your iPhone, iPad and Android mobile devices.

  • Is there a limit to how many videos I can convert?

    • No. This tool is unrestricted and allows for unlimited conversions per day. However, you can only upload one image at a time.

  • Is there a limit to how large uploaded files can be?

    • No. For now, there is no limit to file sizes. Our converter is designed to run on your computer locally, as opposed to consuming our server's resources. That means the only limit to video-to-GIF conversion on our platform is the processing speed of your computer.

  • Can I save my converted GIFs on your website?

    • No. No files are stored on our server. If you do not download a converted GIF and then close the tab, you will need to convert it again.

  • Can I convert several videos at once?

    • At the moment, conversions must be done one at a time. This is something we are working on improving in the future.

  • How long will it take to convert my video into a GIF?

    • That depends on a number of factors including internet speeds, your computer's available resources, your browser, the frame rate, and the length of the video.

  • Can I convert GIFs to videos with this tool?

    • At the moment, no. In the future, we plan to release a variety of other free, browser-based converters, including a GIF-to-video converter. Stay tuned!
