Quick answer

FreeImageKit converts video to GIF for free, in your browser, without uploading the video. Choose an MP4, MOV or WebM file, drag the in and out handles, set the frame rate (5–30 fps), width, colours and dithering, then make the GIF straight away or open the clip's frames in the GIF editor. A video engine of about 31 MB downloads once from this site and runs on your device. Videos up to 500 MB are accepted; clips can be up to 15 seconds at 720p or 30 seconds at 480p.

How to use this tool

  1. Select an MP4, MOV or WebM video.
  2. Drag the in and out handles to choose the clip, and set the frame rate, width, colours and dithering.
  3. Select Quick GIF to download the GIF, or Edit frames to fine-tune it in the GIF editor.

Frequently asked questions

Is my video uploaded?

No. The video engine (FFmpeg compiled to WebAssembly) is downloaded from this site once and converts the video on your device.

How long can the GIF be?

Up to 15 seconds when the GIF is larger than 480p (up to 720p), or up to 30 seconds at 480p or smaller. Editing frames is limited to 180 frames.

Which videos work?

MP4, MOV and WebM files up to 500 MB, including H.264, HEVC, VP8 and VP9 video. If your browser cannot preview a file, the engine can usually still convert it.

Why does the first conversion take longer?

The first time, the browser downloads the video engine (about 31 MB). It is cached, so later conversions start straight away.
