Like Giffing Tool, it lets you capture everything inside a defined window on screen.
When that's done, you can add filters, create a text overlay, crop and resize your GIF, and more.įor those of you on macOS, you can go back to Giphy again with the simple Giphy Capture for macOS. You can record something your doing in an app, or a video you're playing from your computer, or a video you're playing on the web. Click New, drag out the area of the screen you want to build a GIF from, then hit Esc when you've finished recording. One of the top choices on Windows is Giffing Tool, which runs under a pay-what-you-want policy-you can use it for free, if you don't mind a watermark on your finished GIFs, or send the developers a donation if you find it useful. Plenty of people will be happy with the features and options in those two web apps-and you don't need to install any extra software, everything just runs in your browser-but if you need a bit more control and functionality, desktop apps for Windows and macOS are also available.
