Frequently asked questions
How do I crop a GIF?
Drop it above, drag the box over the area to keep, apply, download. Animation and timing are preserved.
Can I shorten a GIF too?
Yes — set start and end points to cut the timeline as well as the frame.
Will cropping break the animation?
No. Every frame gets the same crop, so motion stays perfectly intact.
Why crop instead of resizing?
Resizing shrinks everything including the subject; cropping removes distractions while keeping the good part big.
Are my GIFs uploaded?
No. Editing runs fully in your browser.
