Yes. There is no sign-up, no watermark and no daily limit. The tool is free because it runs on your own device, which costs us nothing to host.

No. Everything runs inside your browser using JavaScript and the canvas API. Your files are never sent to a server, so you can safely use this tool with confidential screenshots and documents.

GIF is limited to 256 colors per frame, so gradients and photos can show banding. Screenshots of interfaces usually look great. Reducing the width also helps.

Lower the output width, use fewer frames, or shorten the animation. Width has the biggest effect on file size.

Every frame is fitted inside the size of the first frame, centered on the background color you choose.
