When it comes in handy
For example, it helps when a large GIF is slowing down a page and you want to post it as a much lighter MP4.
It's also handy when you need to upload it as a video to a service that doesn't accept GIFs.
Why MP4 helps
For the same motion, MP4 compresses far more efficiently than GIF, so you can cut the file size a lot while keeping similar quality.
Frequently asked questions
Is the file uploaded to a server?+
No. Conversion runs inside your browser, so the file never leaves your device.
Can it extract audio from a video (MP4)?+
Yes. Drop in a video file and pick MP3 or M4A — the video track is discarded and only the audio is saved. Handy for turning lecture videos into audio for listening on the go.
How much smaller does it get?+
It varies by GIF, but it usually shrinks a lot at similar quality.
What about sound?+
The source GIF has no sound, so the converted MP4 has no sound either.
