Can I make a GIF online for free with Kuroga?

Yes. Kuroga lets you make GIF animations online for free in the browser, and on Android via Google Play.

How is Kuroga different from a video-to-GIF tool?

Kuroga starts from a blank canvas. You draw or arrange frames yourself — freehand, pixel art, or photo frames — instead of trimming an existing video.

Can I make an animation as MP4 too?

Yes. Kuroga can export short loops as GIF or MP4 so you can share them on Discord, TikTok, Instagram, and more.
