What you can make with it
Online sellers use a quick GIF to show a product from several angles, in different colors or before and after cleaning, all in one image that plays by itself in a listing, a newsletter or a social post. Teachers and support teams turn a handful of screenshots into a step-by-step animation that's easier to follow than a long message. Families make a little slideshow of photos to send in a group chat.
Designers use it for a simple flipbook of sketches, a logo variation preview or a frame-by-frame drawing. Anyone with a burst of photos from their phone can turn the sequence into a short loop.
Order, timing and size
Images play in the order of the list, so arrange them before processing. Each picture stays on screen for the time you pick: 0.2 seconds feels like a fast animation, 0.5 is a lively slideshow, and 1 or 2 seconds give people time to read text in screenshots.
Every image is fitted to the size of the first one, and any gap is filled with white, so start with the image that has the shape you want for the whole GIF. The size option sets the longest side to 320, 480 or 720 pixels, or keeps the original. Smaller GIFs weigh less, which helps with email and chat limits. Turn on repeat to loop forever; leave it off to play once. Up to 300 images are handled.
What GIF is good at, and what it isn't
GIF plays almost everywhere: email clients, older phones, forums, help desks and messaging apps. Its limit is color: 256 colors per frame. Screenshots, illustrations, logos and products on a plain background look sharp. Photos with smooth skies or skin tones may show some banding or grain. If that bothers you, use a smaller size or fewer, simpler images.
This mode works with still images, so it runs in any modern browser, Safari included.
Your pictures stay with you
The GIF is created in your browser. Your images are never uploaded or stored, there's no sign-up and no watermark on the result, and it's free.
Need something else? To turn an animated WEBP into a GIF, use WEBP to GIF. To take an existing GIF apart into separate pictures, use GIF to PNG frames. And if the GIF you made is meant for a printed document rather than a screen, JPG to PDF puts the original images on pages instead.
