Questions
Why is a GIF so big?
A GIF stores every frame, and each frame holds at most 256 colours. Fewer frames, a smaller width, fewer colours and turning dithering off all make the file smaller.
Is my video uploaded?
No. Frames are read from the video and encoded in your browser, so the file never leaves your device.
Can I make a big GIF smaller?
Yes. Drop the GIF and choose a smaller size. Its frames are encoded again at a lower width, frame rate or colour count.
Will the GIF land exactly on the limit?
It lands just under it. The size is estimated from sample frames and the real file is checked, trying up to four settings. MB here means 1,000,000 bytes.
