Frequently asked questions

How do I make a GIF from pictures?

Add your images, put them in order, set how long each frame shows (500 ms is a good start), then click “Make GIF”.

What does boomerang do?

It plays the frames forward and then backward, so the animation loops smoothly without a jump.

Why does my GIF look grainy?

GIF allows 256 colours per frame, so smooth gradients and photos can show banding. Graphics, text and flat colours look cleanest.

Can I make a GIF from a video?

Yes — use MP4 to GIF (or WebM / MOV to GIF) to turn a clip into an animation.

Are my files uploaded?

No. Everything runs in your browser, so your files never leave your device.
