Screen recordings from your Mac, Windows, iPhone or a browser recorder make great demos — but they are heavy and will not autoplay inline. Convert one to a looping GIF that plays everywhere.
A GIF of a screen recording loops automatically in Slack, Discord, GitHub issues, pull requests and docs, with no player and no click. That is why demo and bug-report GIFs are so much clearer than an attached video file.
SimpleGIF accepts MOV, MP4, WebM and six more capture formats and converts them without an upload. The whole conversion runs on your own machine with WebAssembly — the file is never uploaded to a server, so nothing leaves this browser tab. No size cap, no waiting.
Trim to the exact moment you want to show, lower the FPS to keep the file light, cap the width to fit a README, and loop it forever. Preview, tweak and re-render instantly.
Your video is processed by ffmpeg compiled to WebAssembly, right in this tab. No server ever sees it.
Trim, FPS, output width, playback speed and looping — the knobs that decide how the GIF looks and weighs.
Tweak a setting and convert again without re-loading the file. A live progress bar tracks every frame.
Drag your screen recording (MOV, MP4 or WebM) into the converter, trim it, set FPS and width, then convert and download the looping GIF.
Yes. iPhone and Mac screen recordings are MOV files, which are fully supported — as are Windows and browser-based captures.
No. Everything runs locally in your browser with WebAssembly, so your recording never leaves your device.
Lower the FPS, reduce the width, and trim the clip. You are warned before the GIF grows past 10MB, so it stays shareable.
