Frequently asked questions

How do I convert WebM to GIF?

Open the video, drag the trim handles (or type the start and end), pick a frame rate and width, then click Create GIF and download. You can also crop, add text and edit single frames before you create it.

Does it keep transparency from WebM?

Transparent WebM (VP8/VP9 with alpha) keeps its transparency in the GIF where the browser decodes the alpha channel; choose a background colour in Effects to fill it instead.

How do I make the GIF smaller?

Use a smaller width (320–480 px is plenty for chats), a lower frame rate (10–12 fps), fewer colours (64–128) and some lossy compression — or type a size under “Fit under a file size” and the settings are found for you. Shorter clips make the biggest difference.

Can I add text or a caption?

Yes — open the Text tab: meme text (top and bottom), any number of captions with font, size, colour, outline and shadow, dragged into place on the preview and shown on all frames or only some.

Can I save as MP4, WebM, WebP or APNG instead?

Yes. The Export tab makes GIF, MP4 (H.264), WebM, animated WebP and APNG from the same edit — MP4 and WebP are usually many times smaller than a GIF.

Is my video uploaded?

No. Frames are read from the video by your browser and the GIF is encoded on your device, so even private clips stay private. Formats the browser cannot play are converted with FFmpeg running in the page.
