    Why convert WMV to GIF?

    To convert WMV files to GIF, drop them on the counter above. A GIF plays by itself as a silent loop in every chat, email and browser.

    Most files convert in seconds: no queue, no email address, and the GIF result saves straight to your computer or phone.

    1. Add your WMV files

      Drag your WMV files onto the counter or pick them with Choose files. You can add several at once.

    2. Check the settings

    4. Download your GIF file

      Get the file with Download. With several files you can download them all as one ZIP.

    Frequently asked questions

    Is converting WMV to GIF free?

    Yes, completely free. No account, no daily limit, no watermark and no queue.

    Does it work on a phone?

    Yes. It works on iPhone, iPad and Android, with no app to install.

    Is there a file size limit?

    There is no size limit set by us. Files of hundreds of MB convert too; very large files take longer and are handled more comfortably on a computer than on a phone.
