Is MP4 to GIF free? Is there a watermark?

Yes — MP4 to GIF is free to use with no sign-up or watermark. Very large files can still be limited by your browser's available memory and processing resources.

Do my files get uploaded to a server?

No. MP4 to GIF runs entirely in your browser with WebAssembly, so your MP4, MOV, WebM, MKV file never leaves your device and nothing is stored or seen by us.

What can I put in, and what do I get out?

MP4 to GIF accepts MP4, MOV, WebM, MKV and gives you back a GIF file. You can also set frame rate and width before you run it. Actual codec support depends on what the bundled engine or browser decoder can read.

Will I lose quality converting to GIF?

GIF supports at most 256 colours and no audio. The two-pass palette improves colour selection, but gradients and photographic detail can still dither or band.

MP4 to GIF

Convert an MP4, MOV, or WebM into a looping GIF with selectable frame rate and width. A two-pass palette improves colour selection, but results still depend on the source. No upload or watermark.

Runs entirely in your browser. Your file is never uploaded — no watermark, no account.

Best for: Short reactions, product moments, and silent looping embeds where a video player would be awkward. Clips with a clear subject and limited scene changes usually translate most cleanly.
Input → output: MP4, MOV, WebM, or MKV video becomes a looping GIF at 8–24 frames per second and 320–800 pixels wide. Audio is intentionally omitted because GIF cannot contain sound.
Quality tip: Trim first, then try 8–12 fps at a modest width. The two-pass palette improves colour selection; fewer frames and pixels usually affect size most.
Know before running: GIF stores at most 256 colours per frame, so gradients and fine photographic detail can band or dither. A GIF may also be much larger than its source video despite the reduced resolution.
Next step: Optimize GIF if the loop is still too large for chat, email, or an embed.
