Boomerang GIF Maker FAQ
What is a boomerang GIF?
A short loop that plays forward and then backward, so the motion bounces back and forth with no jump at the end. Your frames play 1, 2, 3 … and back down again, then repeat.
How many photos do I need?
At least 3. Ten to twenty burst photos give smooth motion; you can add up to 100.
How fast should a boomerang be?
About 10 to 15 frames per second looks like a classic boomerang. Lower it for a slow, dreamy bounce. The speed goes from 0.5 to 30 frames per second.
Can I make a boomerang from a video?
This maker works with still images, such as burst photos or screenshots. To turn a video clip into a GIF, use our free Video to GIF converter.
Can I post it as a video?
Yes. Download as video saves the same loop as an MP4, which is smaller and works where GIFs don’t. Browsers that can’t make MP4 save WebM.
Are my photos uploaded?
No. The boomerang is made in your browser and your photos never leave your device.
