How to convert your videos into GIFs with WhatsApp

One of WhatsApp's fun features allows you to make a GIF out of any video you've taken with your phone. The clips can be up to six seconds long, taken from any length video, and then converted within the app. In this article, we show you how.

It’s easy to share fun custom GIFs with your friends. In addition to the ability to search and send GIFs from Giphy or Tenor, you can now make your own GIFs in WhatsApp by converting them from videos. The source videos must be located in your camera roll and cut down to six seconds long or less in the GIF-making process. Here’s how to do it from start to finish.
