Common GIF Download Issues

Even with the right tool, users sometimes face small issues while trying to download GIFs online. Here are the most common problems and how to handle them.

!

GIF Downloads as a Video Instead of a GIF

Some websites convert GIFs into video formats like MP4 to save bandwidth. If this happens, try using a direct GIF link or extract the GIF from the webpage instead of saving the video file.

!

Unable to Download GIF from a Website

Certain websites block downloads or load GIFs dynamically. Scrolling through the page before extracting GIFs can help. If the issue continues, copying the GIF link directly usually works better.

!

GIF Link Is Not Working

If a GIF link does not download, it may not point to the actual image file. Open the GIF in a new tab and copy the image URL again before pasting it into the downloader.

!

Downloaded GIF Is Not Animating

This usually happens when the file is incomplete or saved incorrectly. Re-download the GIF using the direct download option to ensure the full animation is captured.

Issues Downloading GIFs on Mobile
