AVI vs GIF, in short
AVI is an old Windows video format from the 1990s. Older cameras, screen recorders and archives still produce it, but phones and most websites don't play it.
GIF is an animated image format: no sound, up to 256 colours per frame, looping wherever an image can show.
You pick where the GIF starts, how long it runs (1 to 60 seconds), the frame rate and the width. The colours are chosen from your own clip, so it looks better than a generic GIF palette.
Frequently
Asked Questions
Does converting AVI to GIF lose quality?
A GIF has at most 256 colours per frame and no sound, so it's always a step down from video. Keep it short and narrow for the best result.
Does the GIF have sound?
No. GIFs can't hold sound.
How long does it take?
It depends on the length: re-encoding in the browser uses one processor core, so expect a minute or more per minute of video.
Is my file uploaded?
No. It's processed in your browser, on your own device, and never leaves it.
