Why use Cutlia for this
iPhone HEVC handled
iPhones record HEVC. If your browser can't decode it, Cutlia converts the video on your device as it opens — it only takes a little longer.
Made for screen recordings
A still screen costs almost nothing in a GIF, since only what changes between frames is stored — ideal for app demos and bug reports.
Short, looping, captioned
Up to 30 seconds, looping, as a boomerang or played once, with meme text at the top and bottom if you want it.
Frequently asked questions
Can I turn iPhone videos into GIFs?
Yes. iPhone videos are MOV files, usually HEVC (H.264 with “Most Compatible” on). Open one here and pick the part; if your browser can't decode HEVC, it's converted on your device first.
How do I make a GIF of a screen recording?
On a Mac, record with Shift-Command-5 (or QuickTime Player), open the MOV here and pick the seconds that matter. 10 or 15 fps is plenty for a screen, so the GIF stays small and sharp.
My video is 60 fps — will the GIF be too?
No: it's made at 10, 15, 20 or 25 frames a second — every frame adds to the size, and browsers slow very fast GIFs down. The motion keeps its real speed; choose 0.5× for slow motion.
Is it really free?
Yes. Cutlia is free to use with no account, no trial and no watermark on your export. The site is paid for by the ads on it, and your files never leave your device.
