ezgif.com news and updates

• Aug 22, 2026

  Added a new tool: Online Screen Recorder. You can record your screen, window, or browser tab directly in your browser with customizable quality settings (up to 4K/30fps), and then edit and convert the recording to GIF, WebP, APNG, MP4 or save the video directly.

  Added a new GIF Target Size Compressor for automatically optimizing GIFs to fit target file size limits (256 KB, 128 KB, 10 MB, etc.) for Discord, Slack, email, or web uploads.

  Introduced a client-side Bulk GIF Optimizer powered by WebAssembly (gifsicle WASM) for compressing multiple GIF files at once directly in your browser without uploads, with lossy compression support and single-click ZIP downloads.

  Also added support for Lottie animation files (.json and .lottie) with Lottie to GIF, Lottie to WebP, and Lottie to APNG converters, and Aseprite files (.ase and .aseprite) with Aseprite to GIF, Aseprite to WebP, and Aseprite to APNG converters and GIF Maker support.

  The Video Cutter now features an interactive timeline with thumbnail previews. When you change the start or end time, thumbnails at the exact positions are generated dynamically, making it easier to find the precise cut points. It also now allows inverting the selection (cut out a part of the video and splice the remaining parts together) (discussion).

  Expanded the audio tools with new utilities:

  • Audio Compressor for reducing file sizes by adjusting bitrate, sample rate, and channels.
  • Fade In/Out editor with multiple curve types for smooth audio transitions.
  • Waveform Generator that creates customizable waveform images from audio files.
  • Audio Speed Changer with optional pitch preservation for speeding up or slowing down audio.

  Added new converters for less common/legacy animation formats: FLIF to GIF, FLIF to PNG, BPG to GIF, FLI to PNG, CDXL to GIF, and CDXL to PNG. Also expanded support for FLIF, BPG, FLI/FLC, Amiga ANIM, and Amiga CDXL files across the splitter and maker tools.

  The white box caption tool now supports video files in addition to animated images. You can add iFunny-style top or bottom captions to MP4, WebM, MOV and other video formats (discussion).

  Added animated SVG output to the image vectorization tools. You can now convert animated GIF to SVG, APNG to SVG, animated WebP to SVG, and animated AVIF to SVG. Each frame is vectorized independently and combined into a single animated SVG using CSS keyframe animations, preserving original frame timing.

  Since ezgif already had a few audio tools, I decided to create a seperate section for them, and added a few more converters. For example, you can now convert WAV to MP3, FLAC to MP3, and OGG to M4A. You can also boost audio volume, mute, or extract audio from video.

  Added a new tool: EXIF and metadata remover. It strips all metadata from image files (GPS location, camera details, timestamps, author info, and embedded thumbnails) before you share them online.
  Video subtitles tool now allows you to add semi transparent backgrounds to the text for better readability.

• Mar 5, 2026

  Added an edge cleanup option to the background removal and effects tools. It removes fuzzy semi-transparent or distorted color pixels that remain along the edges after replacing a color with transparency, producing cleaner, sharper edges (discussion).
