How to use Make GIF Corners Round
- 1. Upload the GIF. Drop in or browse for the animated GIF with square corners you want to round. Every frame is decoded so the same corner mask can be applied throughout the animation.
- 2. Set the corner radius. Enter Corner radius in pixels to control how rounded the corners become. A small radius gives a subtle rounding, while a large radius approaches a fully rounded or circular shape.
- 3. Download the rounded GIF. Download the result once processing finishes. The four corners of every frame are now cut away with transparency, matching the radius you set, ready to sit on any background.
When to use Make GIF Corners Round
Make GIF Corners Round rounds off the four corners of every frame in an animated GIF, replacing the cut-away area with transparency. Use it whenever a square GIF needs to match a rounded UI element like a card or an avatar frame. The rounding happens locally in your browser.
- Matching a card-based UI design. A design system uses rounded corners on every card component, but an embedded animated thumbnail is a hard rectangle. Rounding its corners makes it consistent with the surrounding layout.
- Creating a rounded profile animation. An animated avatar or profile picture needs rounded corners to match the circular or squircle mask used elsewhere on a profile page or app icon.
- Softening a sticker for a chat bubble. A sticker GIF placed inside a rounded chat bubble looks out of place with sharp square corners. Rounding them to match the bubble's radius makes the sticker feel native.
