Step-by-Step Instructions:

  1. Click the Start Screen Recording button above.
  2. In the browser popup, choose whether you want to capture your Entire Screen, a specific Window, or a Browser Tab.
  3. Perform the actions you want to record on your screen. You can track recording length with the live duration timer.
  4. When finished, click Stop Recording (or use the browser floating bar's Stop Sharing button).
  5. Review your clip using the built-in video player. If satisfied, click Upload & Convert to GIF.
  6. Your recording will open in our Video to GIF converter where you can convert your screen to GIF, WebP, APNG, or MP4, edit video duration/crop/dimensions, or download the recorded video file.

Features & Benefits:

  • Multiple Output Formats: Convert your screen capture to animated GIF, WebP, APNG, AVIF, or MP4 video.
  • Edit & Download Video: Use Ezgif's video editing tools to cut duration, crop dimensions, resize, adjust playback speed, mute audio, or download the recorded video file.
  • Full GIF Editing Suite: Edit your generated GIF with Ezgif's tools, including crop, resize, speed changer, effects, and GIF optimizer.
  • Cross-Platform: Works on desktop Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, and Opera on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Tips for Best Results:

  • To keep the GIF file size small, try recording a specific application window or browser tab instead of your entire 4K display.
  • Keep recordings concise. Short animations under 10–15 seconds convert faster and result in lighter, web-friendly GIF files.
