FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this Video to GIF converter really free?
Yes. FormatSpot's Video to GIF converter is 100% free with no sign up, no watermarks, and no limits on how many files you convert.
Are my videos uploaded to a server?
No. All conversion happens locally in your browser using FFmpeg WASM. Your files never leave your device, so your privacy is fully protected.
What is the maximum file size?
We recommend keeping videos under 200 MB. Larger files may cause the browser to run out of memory since everything is processed locally.
What video formats are supported?
You can upload MP4, WebM, and MOV files. The tool uses FFmpeg WASM which supports a wide range of video codecs.
How do I make a smaller GIF?
Use lower FPS (e.g., 10 instead of 30), smaller scale (e.g., 360p instead of 720p), and trim only the portion of the video you need. These settings drastically reduce the output GIF file size.
