How long can the GIF be?
Up to 900 frames: 75 seconds at 12 fps, 45 seconds at 20 fps. Shorter is much better, though. GIFs grow quickly: 5 seconds at 480 px and 12 fps is usually 2 to 5 MB, which most chat apps accept.
Can I speed the GIF up or make it play once?
Yes. Speed plays the clip at half speed up to twice as fast, and a faster GIF also has fewer frames, so it’s smaller. Loop: Play once stops on the last frame instead of starting again.
What frame rate should I use?
12 fps looks smooth for most clips and keeps the file small. Use 20 fps for fast motion, or 8 fps for reaction GIFs and screen recordings where smoothness matters less.
Is there a watermark?
No. The GIF is yours, without any logo or watermark.
Is my video uploaded?
No. Frames are read and the GIF is built in your browser, so the video stays on your device.
