Frequently asked questions

How long can the GIF be?

Up to 400 frames, for example 40 seconds at 10 frames per second. Short clips (3–10 seconds) at 480 px wide give the best balance between quality and file size.

Is my WEBM uploaded?

No. The video is read by your own browser and the GIF is built on your device. Nothing is sent to a server.

Why is my GIF so large?

GIF is an old format without modern compression. Lower the width or the frames per second, or shorten the clip, to make it smaller.
