Frequently asked questions
Why is there a 15-second limit?
Longer GIFs get very large very fast and can slow down or crash the browser tab during processing \u2014 15 seconds keeps file sizes and processing times reasonable.
Can I use special characters in the caption?
Basic punctuation works; avoid colons and backslashes, which have special meaning to the underlying video engine.
