Switch Labs GIF Maker

Switch Labs GIF Maker is a free web tool for creating animated GIFs from image sequences or video clips. Image mode accepts PNG, JPG, WebP, GIF stills, and iPhone HEIC photos; HEIC and HEIF files are converted in the browser before encoding. You can reorder frames and set timing for each one. Video mode provides trimming and frame-rate controls. Image encoding uses JavaScript in the page, while video processing uses FFmpeg compiled to WebAssembly. Switch Labs says files are decoded and encoded in the browser tab rather than sent to a server. Downloads have no watermark at any size or setting. The tool reports the finished GIF's byte count and recommends reducing width, then frame count and color count, when shrinking output. Palette choices include shared 256-color or per-frame palettes. The page links to companion compressor, resizer, and GIF-to-MP4 tools. The Free plan costs nothing, forever, with no sign-up or stated limits.
