Frequently asked questions

Can I turn a video into a GIF?

Yes. Add a video and choose GIF as the format to open the GIF settings. Pick the part to keep with the timeline ends, set frame rate, speed, direction (forward, reverse, boomerang), looping and colors, then save. A width of 480px, 10 seconds or less and 10–15 frames per second gives a size that works well for chats and forums.
