GIF + ABC

Add text to an animated GIF

Caption any GIF in seconds. Drop the GIF, type your text in the classic bold meme style or as a clean caption above it, add emoji, drag everything into place and download a new animated GIF with the text on every frame. The original timing is kept, and you choose the output width to keep the file small.

Private: your files never leave your device.

Layout

Frequently asked questions

Does the GIF keep its animation and speed?

Yes. Every frame is kept with its original timing; the text is drawn on top of each one.

How do I keep the GIF small?

Choose a smaller output width (360 or 480 px suits chats and social media). Shorter GIFs are smaller too — make one from a video with Video to GIF.

Is my GIF uploaded?

No. Decoding, drawing and encoding all happen in your browser.
