How to make a boomerang GIF

Open a GIF and the preview plays it forward, then backward, in a seamless loop. Save it to share anywhere GIFs play. This boomerang maker runs in your browser, so the GIF is never uploaded.

  1. Step 1

    Choose your GIF
    Pick a GIF or drop it into the boomerang maker above.

  2. Step 2

    Check the preview
    It plays forward, then backward, in a loop.

  3. Step 3

    Download the GIF
    Save the boomerang GIF when it is ready.

What to expect

Supported inputs
Animated GIFs.
What happens
The frames play forward and then back, without repeating the first or last frame, so the loop has no pause. The GIF loops forever unless you choose a number of plays. The frames are re-encoded once.
Limits
The boomerang is nearly twice as long as the GIF, so its file is about twice the size.
