WebM to GIF: common questions

Is this WebM to GIF converter free?
Yes. Files up to 500 MB convert free, without an account and without a watermark. Pro raises the limit to 2 GB a file and converts up to 30 files at a time.
Why convert WebM to GIF?
Some chat apps, email clients, documentation tools and older software won't play WebM but will show a GIF inline. The GIF will be larger, so keep clips short.
Is my video uploaded?
No. The conversion runs in your browser, so the video stays on your device and never reaches our server. Once the page has loaded it keeps working if your connection drops.
Why does the first conversion take a few seconds to start?
The converter is a copy of FFmpeg that runs in your browser. It's about 31 MB, so it downloads the first time you use it and your browser keeps it for next time.
