Convert GIF to MP4
MP4 stores the same frames in a fraction of the bytes — embeds autoplay everywhere GIFs do, load 10× faster, and keep per-frame timing intact.
- Typically 8–10× smaller than the source GIF
- Per-frame delays preserved (variable-speed GIFs stay correct)
- No upload — files never leave your device
- No watermark · 5 exports/day free
Frequently asked questions
Why convert GIF to MP4?
GIF is spectacularly inefficient — 256 colors, no motion compression. The same animation as H.264 MP4 is usually 8–10× smaller, full-color, and every platform (Twitter/X, Discord, iMessage) plays looping MP4s exactly like GIFs.
Are the timing and loop preserved?
Yes. Each GIF frame's delay is read individually (including the 10ms-clamp quirk browsers apply) and mapped to the video timeline, so variable-speed GIFs stay correct.
What about transparency?
MP4 has no alpha channel — transparent GIF regions get composited onto black. For stickers/overlays keep the GIF, for everything else MP4 wins.
