how to high quality mp4 to gif
- drop your mp4 file onto the box above.
- set the start and end, and loop the preview to check it.
- pick fit a file size and a limit, or choose fps and width.
- press make gif and download the result.
the extra smoothness comes from three things: a palette built from your clip, finer dithering to hide colour banding, and a higher frame rate. each one adds size, which is why this preset limits the default clip length to 4 seconds.
flat-colour footage like ui recordings gains the most from these settings. photographic video gains less and the gif can get very heavy, so check the size guess before converting, and try fit a file size mode if you need a cap.

frequently asked questions
how big will it be?
the guess under the settings gives a range. a 4 second clip at 800 px and 20 fps is often 8 to 25 mb on camera footage and far less on screen recordings.
is gif the best format for quality?
no. mp4 and webm look far better at smaller sizes. use a gif only where video is not accepted.
can i lower the size after?
yes. switch to fit a file size mode and enter a limit. the tool keeps the high quality palette.
