How to: GIF to MP4
- Select GIFs.
- Choose MP4 or WebM.
- Download.
GIFs are inefficient: an MP4 of the same animation is often 5–10× smaller and plays on every platform, including those that do not animate GIFs.
Common uses
- Post GIF animations on platforms that need video.
- Speed up websites by replacing GIFs with video.
- Share animations in smaller files.
Tips for best results
- WebM is a good choice for websites; MP4 is the most compatible.
Why convert GIFs to video
Animated GIFs store each frame almost independently, while MP4 (H.264) and WebM use modern compression across frames. The same animation as MP4 is often 5–10× smaller, loads faster and looks smoother, which improves page speed scores.
Using the result on a website
Replace a GIF with a muted, looping video tag (autoplay, loop, muted, playsinline) and visitors see the same animation with much less data. On social platforms, MP4 uploads keep better quality than GIF uploads.
