Frequently Asked Questions
What settings does the GIF use?
12 frames per second, capped at 480 pixels wide, with a per-clip optimized color palette — the sweet spot for smooth, reasonably sized GIFs.
Why is my GIF larger than the video?
GIF is a 1980s format that stores every frame as a compressed image — it's far less efficient than modern video codecs. Keep clips short (a few seconds) for shareable sizes.
Is it safe to convert videos online?
Yes. Unlike traditional online converters, this tool never uploads your files. The conversion runs entirely inside your browser using WebAssembly, so videos never leave your device — you can even disconnect from the internet after the page loads and it still works.
