Where Does Gifski Save Conversions?
Gifski converts video clips to high-quality GIFs with output saved wherever you choose per export. The app keeps no library; your files are the archive.
Last updated
Gifski is a converter, not a library. Each run reads a source video and writes a GIF to the location picked in the save dialog. No project files accumulate and no catalog exists to back up.
That makes the output folder the whole story: choose it deliberately per export. Settings like dimensions and FPS reset per session, so favorite recipes live in habit rather than presets. Keep source videos until the GIF proves good; re-exports beat repairs. Preset sizes cover common share targets like chats.
Where Gifski stores this, by platform
~/Downloads/ (default export folder)
Output saves per export to your chosen folder; no library exists. Defaults point at the source folder. Keep sources until GIFs prove good.
Frequently asked questions
Where do Gifski conversions save?
Drop a video file onto Gifski, trim and size it, then pick the save location in the export dialog. Defaults point at the source folder. Name outputs by purpose; batch conversions blur together fast.
How do I keep GIF file sizes small?
Lower dimensions and frame rate first, then trim length. Gifski squeezes remarkable quality per megabyte, but long HD clips still balloon. Short loops under ten seconds share best.
