What This Conversion Does

Convert AVI to GIF

AVI video can be converted for playback, sharing, audio extraction, GIF creation, or frame capture. DropFile handles these media workflows from the desktop.

  • Drop the file onto DropFile and choose the GIF output action.
  • Keep supported conversions on your local Windows PC instead of using a web upload workflow.
  • Use one desktop app for documents, spreadsheets, images, PDF, video, audio, and archives.
