Advanced GIF Speed & Timing Control

Master the tempo of your GIF animations with professional speed adjustment tools. Whether creating dramatic slow-motion effects, energetic time-lapses, or simply fixing awkward pacing, our speed controller provides granular control from ultra-slow to lightning-fast. Adjust overall speed by percentage, modify individual frame delays, or target specific durations - all while maintaining perfect quality and smooth playback.

Speed Features

Adjust GIF playback speed from 10% (10x slower) to 500% (5x faster) with exact percentage control. Fine-tune animation timing to achieve perfect pacing for any purpose - from slow-motion analysis to rapid-fire sequences. Real-time preview shows speed changes instantly.

Control individual frame delays or apply uniform timing across all frames. Set delays from 20ms (super fast) to 10 seconds (slideshow speed). Perfect for fixing timing issues, creating dramatic pauses, or standardizing irregular frame rates from various sources.

When slowing down significantly, optionally add interpolated frames for smoother motion. Our algorithm analyzes motion between frames and generates intermediate frames, preventing choppy playback in slow-motion effects while maintaining visual quality.

See exactly how speed changes affect total duration. Input target duration and get the exact speed percentage needed. Perfect for fitting GIFs into specific time slots for presentations, social media posts, or syncing with audio in video projects.

Frequently Asked Questions

Most social platforms work best with GIFs between 3-5 seconds. Instagram Stories prefer 3 seconds, Twitter allows up to 5 seconds for auto-play. Use our duration calculator to hit these targets exactly. Generally, 150-200% speed works well for lengthy GIFs.
When speeding up significantly (300%+), frame delays can become too short for smooth playback. Most browsers limit GIF playback to 10 FPS (100ms per frame). If your sped-up GIF has delays under 50ms, consider using our frame removal option to maintain smoothness.
Yes, through frame-level control! Adjust individual frame delays to create variable speed effects - slow down important moments while speeding through transitions. This creates dynamic pacing perfect for tutorials or dramatic effect.
You can slow down to 10% speed (10x slower) with frame delays up to 10 seconds each. For ultra-slow motion effects, combine speed reduction with our frame interpolation option to add smoothness. Perfect for analyzing fast actions or creating artistic time-stretch effects.
Speed changes don't affect file size directly - the same frames are present, just with different timing data. However, if you use frame interpolation when slowing down or frame removal when speeding up, this will change the file size accordingly.
