Tips for a good GIF

  • Keep it short. 2 to 5 seconds works best.
  • Choose Small or Medium to get a smaller file.
  • Use 10 frames per second for a good balance of smoothness and size.
  • Large size with 15 frames per second makes a big file, so use it only for short clips.
  • Clips can be up to 10 seconds long.

How it works: your browser reads the video on your own device, takes a picture of the video at the speed you choose, and joins the pictures into a GIF. That is why it works without sign-up and why your video stays private. Clips can be up to 10 seconds. For a smaller file, choose a smaller size or fewer frames per second.
