GIFFECTS
Read full descriptionHide full description
GIFFECTS turns your videos and GIFs into polished animated loops. No watermarks, no accounts, no web converters - just a fast, layer-based editor built for people who want quality GIFs. Import from Photos, a pasted link, your clipboard, the in-app camera, or straight from the iOS share sheet. Create layers, keyframe, and adjust timing detail in a scrubbable timeline. Add animated text that actually moves. Bounce, letter fall, and emoji scatter styles turn flat captions into part of the animation, layered exactly where you want them, frame by frame. See something you'd rather not? Erasure tools wipe unwanted objects out of every frame in the loop (or just the frames you specify). Combine that with frame-rate and resolution controls, plus a live export preview, to achieve exactly the output you want. GIFFECTS also ships a share extension - convert a video to a GIF straight from Photos, Safari, or any app that can share. Keep your growing library organized with drag-and-drop folders and, if you want your projects on multiple devices, enable iCloud sync through your own private iCloud. Nothing leaves your device unless you so choose. GIFFECTS is free, with no subscriptions and no in-app purchases. Everything renders locally. The GIFs of your dreams are closer than you think - download GIFFECTS and get started!
