Unfortunately, keeping a Twitter GIF on your smartphone is more complicated than downloading it on your computer, largely thanks to the limits of mobile operating systems. Just remember that reposting the GIF to Twitter will reconvert the GIF back to Twitter’s hybrid format, as it does with any animated GIF file.

Click the “Upload video!” button to convert your mp4 to GIF format.

Select the downloaded video and click “Open” to add it to EZGIF.COM.

Click on “Browse” to look for the file you just downloaded.

Go to “ “and ensure you are on the “Video to GIF” tab, then select the “Video to GIF” secondary tab.

Name your file in the “Save As:” box, select the download location in the “Where:” box, then click “Save.”.

On the new page, perform a “two-finger tap” (ignore that it says right-click) on “Download Link,” then select Save Link As….

Go to “,” paste the copied “Twitter GIF” link into the “video URL box,” and then click the “Download” button.

Open a new tab by clicking the “+” icon to the right of the current one at the top.

Two-finger click on the “GIF,” then select “Copy Gif Address.”.

You can use the feed, a post’s particular comments page, or the person’s reply page directly.

Open the “tweet” on your Mac containing the GIF you want to copy.

The easiest way to save a Twitter GIF is through a Mac.
