MakeAGIF vs Momento

MakeAGIF is a web service for turning imported video into GIFs. The free account costs nothing and allows 10 seconds of video time. Premium Membership allows 20 seconds, which is also the listed maximum GIF duration. Exports can be watermark-free, and transparent GIF export is available. Video import is supported, but screen recording is not. The service is listed for use through a web browser, Chrome extension, or API. Its freemium model offers a free plan and a paid membership with a longer video-time allowance, though no Premium Membership price is listed. The listed features focus on making GIFs from video and exporting them in standard or transparent form. For someone choosing between the available allowances, the free account provides half the video time allowed by the stated maximum; Premium reaches that limit. MakeAGIF is web-based, with the browser, extension, and API as its listed access routes.

Momento makes short visual videos and GIFs from photos, Live Photos, and videos on iOS and macOS. Its editing tools include text, effects, sound, stickers, frames, AR, music, filters, speed and direction controls, trimming, zoom, and GIPHY. Finished creations can be shared to TikTok, iMessage, WhatsApp, WeChat, LINE, Messenger, Instagram Stories, Instagram, and Snapchat. The app is available without registration, and videos are stored locally on the device according to its user agreement. The free plan costs nothing, though some features and visual effects may require fees. Momento Premium costs $9.99 a month and adds creation from the photo library, unlimited access to filters, frames, music, effects, and stickers, plus watermark removal or use of a personal logo. The privacy policy says device information and app-use analytics may be collected; shared videos and metadata may also be collected when users choose to share. The service does not provide backups, and subscriptions renew automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the period ends.
