Discord GIF maker Make GIFs that fit Discord.

Pick the Discord preset and A2ZGIF keeps your GIF under 10 MB, or sizes a small animated emote. Free, no watermark, and nothing is uploaded.

How to make a GIF for Discord

A GIF that is over a platform's limit simply fails to send. A2ZGIF's size presets are built to prevent that.

Make a GIF for Discord

  1. Add your clip. Upload a video, images, or a GIF, and trim it to the part you want.
  2. Open the Size tool. Choose the Discord preset to stay under 10 MB.
  3. Add a caption. Use the Text tool for meme text or a see-through speech bubble, the reaction style popular on Discord.
  4. Download and send.

Animated emotes

For an emote, choose a Discord, Slack, or Twitch emoji preset instead. A2ZGIF makes a small square file within that platform's limit, with transparency.

Other platforms

The same Size tool has presets for Twitter/X, WhatsApp, Reddit, and Slack. Start from a clip with video to GIF, or see the full GIF maker.
