PLATFORM LIMITS
When should you use an 8MB GIF target?
An 8MB upload limit
Choose this preset when the destination explicitly requires an 8MB GIF. Check its current rules before sharing.
A smaller download
Reducing the bytes can lower transfer costs. Playback and loading still depend on the animation, connection and device.
A target that may need trade-offs
Large or detailed GIFs may need fewer colors, smaller dimensions or fewer frames. Compare the result before downloading.
