Questions

Is there a length limit?

No hard limit, but GIFs get big fast. Keep it short.

Is my file uploaded?

No. Clipabay runs inside your browser, so your file is processed on your own computer or phone and never sent to a server.

Is it really free?

Yes. There is no account, no trial, no watermark and no limit on how many files you do. Clipabay is kept going by people who choose to buy us a coffee.
