Compress a GIF to 10MB

Keep detail while trimming a larger animation

10MB is a self-selected budget for a larger GIF attachment or a detailed demonstration. It leaves more room for dimensions and smooth movement than the smaller targets, but some inputs still cannot reach it without changes.

Choosing your settings

Check whether the recipient needs a GIF at all. A shorter duration can save more than aggressive color loss; video is often a better choice for long photographic clips. Optional frame and dimension reductions require your consent.

If the result needs another pass

If the best output is still over 10MB, use Trim to remove unused seconds, then Resize to reduce the canvas. You can edit the target or Export to video. Do not equate this chosen budget with Discord’s current attachment limit.

GIF timing note: missing, 0 ms and 10 ms frame delays are read as 100 ms. Other supported delays are retained unless the task changes timing or the frame sequence. Re-encoded animation may therefore differ from a viewer that handles unusually short delays differently.
