About

Simple GIF Editor

Features
Read full description

Simple GIF Editor is a focused utility for the GIF work you actually do on your phone. It brings four everyday tasks into one clean interface. • Video to GIF — pick a short video and convert a chosen portion into an animated GIF. • Images to GIF — pick several photos and combine them into a single GIF, in the order you choose. • Edit GIF — open an existing GIF, change its playback speed, or adjust its dimensions. • GIF to Video (MP4) — convert a GIF into an MP4 video that plays cleanly in chat apps and other places where GIF playback is limited. All conversions run locally on your device. There is no account to create and no upload step; the standard iOS photo picker handles your media, and the App only asks for permission to save the result when you tap Save. Quick to open, easy to understand, simple to use.
