ClipGIF — YouTube™ to GIF Maker

Turn any moment of a YouTube™ video into an animated GIF right in your browser. No uploads, no servers, no sign-up.

ClipGIF turns any moment of a YouTube video into an animated GIF, right under the player, in a few seconds. HOW IT WORKS 1. Open a video on YouTube and click the GIF button under the player. 2. Set the start and the end. Take the current position with one click or fine-tune it by 0.1 s. 3. Choose the speed (0.5× to 4×), the width (240 to 640 px) and the frame rate (10 or 15 fps). 4. Click Create GIF. Download it, copy it, or drag the preview straight into a chat or onto your desktop. WHY CLIPGIF • Nothing to upload. The GIF is made inside your browser: no servers, no queues, no account. • Precise. Pick the exact moment to a tenth of a second and see the frame count and GIF length before you start. • Speed control. Slow down a reaction or speed up a long action to fit it into a short loop. • Smaller files. Each frame stores only what changed, so scenes with a still background come out up to 3× smaller, with no loss of quality. • Private. ClipGIF doesn't send or store your data: everything is processed in your browser. It runs only on youtube.com and needs no special permissions. GOOD TO KNOW • Clips can be up to 15 seconds long (150 frames). • Shorts are not supported yet. • Some protected videos can't be captured: the browser hides their picture from extensions, and ClipGIF will tell you so. • Chrome's clipboard can't hold an animated GIF, so Copy puts it as HTML. The animation is kept when you paste into Gmail or Google Docs. For messengers, drag the preview or download the file. ClipGIF is not affiliated with, endorsed or sponsored by YouTube or Google LLC.
