You can put a caption over any image or video you add, but there's no library of meme templates: bring your own picture.

Can my GIF have sound?

No, a GIF file can't hold sound. For an animation with music, export an MP4: the audio you added is included.

Is there a limit on text or images?

No. Add as many texts, images and shapes as the animation needs.

Can I put the animation in a presentation?

Yes. Export an MP4 or a GIF and insert it into PowerPoint, Keynote or Google Slides.

Can I import data into a chart?

No, you type the values in. It suits a handful of figures, not large datasets.

Is there a watermark?

No, and every download is free.

When smooth.video fits better

The GIF isn't a meme: a product announcement, an animated banner, a sticker for a newsletter. It needs to be bigger than 500 pixels, carry more than one line of text, and come out clean.

You need an animated stat, chart or title as a video or a GIF, sharper than 1366 pixels or on a transparent background, and don't want a plan just to download it.
