Up to 1,000 characters. Preview timing may differ from encoded GIF playback. GIF transparency is on/off, not smooth opacity. Export is limited to 240 frames and 80 million frame pixels.

Turn your own words into an animated GIF. Preview an effect, set the animation duration and final pause, then generate a downloadable file.

How to make an animated text GIF

Enter text or load UTF-8 TXT, then choose a font, canvas size and text alignment.
Pick an animation effect, duration, frame rate and final-frame pause. Play the preview to check the layout.
Set looping, background and color count. Select Generate, review the encoded GIF, then download.

Text to GIF FAQ

Why can the exported GIF look different from the preview?

GIF uses a limited color palette and frame delays rounded to hundredths of a second. Transparency is binary, so translucent edges or fades may look harder.

How can I make the GIF smaller?

Reduce canvas dimensions, frame rate, duration or color count. Holding the final frame adds a longer delay rather than duplicate frames.

Can I save a still frame instead?

Yes. Play or pause the canvas preview and select Save current frame as PNG. This saves the visible preview frame, not an editable text document.
