    Frequently asked questions

    Do my files leave my device?

    No. Your media never leaves the device. Frames are read and encoded in your browser; nothing is uploaded to API Tool Calls.

    What are the size and length limits?

    Use at most 150 frames and 15 seconds of video, with video sampling from 5 to 15 frames per second. Output dimensions range from 16 to 960 pixels. Each input file is limited to 100 MB and the finished GIF to 50 MB.

    Does MP4 to animated GIF conversion keep sound?

    No. Turning MP4 to an animated GIF saves pictures without sound. Each frame fits inside the output size without cropping, with white space as needed. GIF supports up to 256 colors per frame, so detail may be lost.

    What does frame delay do?

    For images, frame delay sets how long each image stays visible. For video, timing follows the selected frames per second. Choose forever or once for looping.
