How to make a GIF from a video

1. Add a clip. Drop an MP4, MOV or WebM file onto the tool, or tap Choose file. It stays on your device.
2. Pick the moment. Set the start time and a duration of up to 10 seconds, then choose width, frame rate and quality.
3. Make and download. Press Make GIF, check the preview and file size, then download. Free, no watermark.

Need a still instead? The free frame extractor grabs the first or last frame of any clip as a JPG.

Frequently asked questions

How do I turn a video into a GIF for free?: Open the GIF Maker, drop in an MP4, MOV or WebM clip, set where the GIF starts and how long it runs (up to 10 seconds), choose a width, frame rate and quality, then press Make GIF and download it. It is free and needs no account.
Is my video uploaded anywhere?: No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser, so your video and the finished GIF stay on your device. Nothing is sent to a server unless you sign in and choose to save the GIF to your library.
Does the GIF have a watermark?: No. The GIF you download is exactly what you made, with no watermark and no sign-up required.
What settings can I change?: Start time and duration (up to 10 seconds), width (360, 480 or 720 pixels), frame rate (10, 15 or 24 fps) and quality (low, medium or high). Lower width, frame rate and quality make a smaller file; higher settings look smoother.
How do I make a GIF smaller?: Shorten the clip, drop the width to 360 or 480 pixels, use 10 or 15 fps, and pick low or medium quality. Each of those cuts the file size, and the result card shows the exact size before you download.
Does it work on mobile?: Yes. It runs in a modern mobile browser: tap Choose file to pick a clip from your camera roll, adjust the settings, and download the GIF. There is no app to install.
What does a free account add?: Signing up lets you save GIFs to your FXI Studio library and import clips from it, and opens the rest of the studio: generating images and video, and directing short films. The GIF Maker itself stays free without an account.
