Frequently asked questions

How do I make my GIF smaller?

Shorten the clip, lower the frame rate to 10 fps or reduce the width. Each of these reduces the file size significantly.

Why is there a 30-second limit?

GIF is an old, inefficient format; longer clips quickly become tens of megabytes. For long clips, a short MP4 is a better choice.

Is my video uploaded?

No. The GIF is generated entirely in your browser.
