About making a GIF from images
An animated GIF is the simplest way to show a short sequence — a before/after, a few frames of a process, a reaction — because it plays automatically and inline everywhere, with no video player. This tool builds one from a set of still images in your browser: each image becomes a frame, shown for the same length of time.
You control the speed (frames per second) and the output width. Each image is drawn centred on a common frame and encoded with a small GIF library loaded on demand. Because GIF caps each frame at 256 colours, flat graphics, screenshots and drawings come out clean while photos get visibly dithered — that's the format, not the tool.
For a longer or smoother animation, or anything photo-heavy, a video is the better format — use Images to Video instead, then GIF to MP4 isn't even needed. GIF earns its place when you specifically need the auto-playing, universally-embeddable loop.
Supported files
Accepts JPG, PNG and WebP images. Produces a single animated .gif.
Is my file uploaded?
No. The GIF is built from your images entirely in your browser — nothing is uploaded.
Common problems
- Photos look grainy
- GIF only allows 256 colours per frame. For photo sequences, use Images to Video for a much cleaner result.
- The GIF is large
- Lower the frames-per-second and the width. Both cut the file size significantly.

GIF Maker — frequently asked questions
Is anything uploaded?+
No. The GIF is built from your images entirely in your browser.
What order are the frames?+
The order in the list — drag with the arrows to rearrange.
Why does it look grainy?+
GIF allows only 256 colours per frame. Photos dither; flat graphics and drawings look cleaner.
How do I control the speed?+
The frames-per-second setting — lower is slower. Every frame is shown for the same time.
Do you upload my files to a server?+
No — every tool here processes your files entirely on your device, and nothing is uploaded to a server. The only exception is the AI tools, which send the extracted text (not the file) to Claude to do their work.
Is there a file size limit?+
There's no artificial limit we impose, but since processing happens in your browser, very large files (500+ MB or 1,000+ pages) are limited by your device's memory rather than by us.
