GIF Toolbox · HSHS Tech (Hushan Hushan (Shenzhen) Technology Co., Ltd.)
GIF Toolbox can turn a video clip or image sequence into a GIF on Android, iOS, or HarmonyOS, then use its WeChat Official Account compression preset to reduce file size locally without a forced watermark.
Use video to GIF for a screen recording or short clip, image to GIF for product shots or tutorial steps, and smart compression for an existing animation. Short demonstrations, before-and-after comparisons, and repeating instructions work well inside an article.
The preset targets a file below 10 MB and applies a 1000 px width strategy when the source is too wide. The width is a GIF Toolbox quality-and-size strategy, not a universal WeChat image-dimension requirement.
Those numbers can refer to different upload paths. As of August 6, 2026, WeChat's official permanent-material documentation allows GIF image material up to 10 MB, while the developer endpoint for uploading article-body images accepts only JPG or PNG files below 1 MB. Always follow the current editor prompt if the platform changes its rules.

Check text readability, subject edges, playback rhythm, and final size before saving. The preset reduces repeated tuning but cannot guarantee acceptance because file structure, current platform rules, and editor validation can still affect an upload.
Use local editing when your media is already on your phone and you need GIF creation, compression, or edits.
Choose the matching tool for Live Photo conversion, GIF collages, or playback counts in one app.
For background removal, review the cloud preview and Credit quote before deciding on final processing.
Use a desktop editor or FFmpeg for complex timelines or large automated workflows.

As of August 6, 2026, WeChat's official permanent-material documentation allows image material up to 10 MB and supports GIF. Limits differ by endpoint and can change, so the current editor prompt remains the final check.
They may refer to another API or an older rule. The current article-body image upload endpoint, for example, accepts only JPG or PNG below 1 MB and is not the same as ordinary GIF material upload.
No. It targets the common material limit and a practical width, but file structure and current platform validation can still affect acceptance.
