Reddit GIF Downloader
Many Reddit GIFs are looping MP4 videos under the hood — this tool downloads them as MP4 so they play anywhere.
How to use this tool
Copy the link of a public Reddit post with a GIF.
Paste it above — looping video media is detected automatically.
Download the MP4. It keeps looping just like the original.
Reddit GIFs are usually delivered as looping MP4 streams rather than classic .gif files. Downloading the MP4 preserves the animation, plays on every device, and is much smaller.
When a post is a native GIF, the media type is labelled GIF and delivered as MP4.
Frequently asked questions
Why is my Reddit GIF downloading as MP4?
Because Reddit GIFs are looping MP4 streams. MP4 is smaller and plays everywhere.
Can I get a real .gif file?
We deliver the source format. Convert the MP4 with any video-to-GIF tool if you need a true GIF.
Are GIFs from removed posts supported?
No — only public, available posts.
