Making a GIF from pictures
Choose two or more pictures and the page joins them into one looping GIF, like a simple flip-book. It is handy for before-and-after comparisons, product views, step-by-step instructions and small animations from a series of photos. You choose the order and how long each picture shows.
Tips for a smooth result
Use pictures of the same size and shape so the frames line up. Take a series from the same spot, with the phone held steady, for the smoothest effect. Keep the number of frames and the picture size modest, because GIFs grow quickly. A short delay of a fraction of a second makes the animation feel quick, while a delay of a second or more suits a slideshow.
Privacy
Pictures, including iPhone HEIC photos, are processed on your own device and never uploaded.

A quick example: a before-and-after of a garden
You photographed a garden bed before and after weeding, plus two photos in between. Drop in all four, put them in order with the arrows, choose Slow (1 s) for each picture and Medium (480 px) width, then press Make GIF. The result is a four-second loop that you can send in a message.
Choose Play once if you want it to stop on the last picture instead of repeating.
Good to know
Every frame takes the shape of the first picture and the others are fitted inside it with white around them, so put the picture with the shape you want first. Each extra picture and each extra pixel of width makes the file larger, so use only the pictures you need. Very fast timings of 0.2 seconds suit a flip-book effect, and 1 or 2 seconds suit a slideshow. Make the GIF again after changing the order or any setting, as the old one is hidden.
For a smoother result, take the photos from the same spot with the phone resting on something steady, and keep the light the same. Even small changes in position or brightness make a GIF jump around. A set of six to ten pictures is plenty for most uses.

Questions people ask
What if my pictures are different shapes?
Every frame takes the shape of the first picture. The others are fitted inside it with white around them, so nothing is cut off.
Why is the file big?
GIF is an old format and makes large files. Use fewer pictures, or choose a smaller width.
Can I use iPhone photos?
Yes. iPhone photos are converted first.
Are my pictures uploaded?
No. The GIF is made inside your browser, so your pictures never leave your device.
