  • Set the start and end times to trim the clip.
  • Choose the output width and frames per second.

Frequently Asked Questions

What video formats are supported?+
Any format your browser can play — MP4, WebM, MOV, AVI, and more. MP4 (H.264) has the best compatibility.
Is there a file size limit?+
No hard limit. Large videos use more RAM since processing happens in your browser. For best results, trim to a short clip before converting.
How do I make the GIF smaller?+
Reduce the width (pixels), lower the FPS, and shorten the duration. A 480px wide, 10fps, 3-second GIF is typically under 2MB.
Why does my GIF look grainy?+
GIFs are limited to 256 colors per frame. Complex scenes with many colors will show banding. Simpler scenes with fewer colors convert better.
Is my video uploaded anywhere?+
No. Everything runs locally in your browser using the Canvas API. Your video never leaves your device.
