Use cases
Where a short GIF explains more than a paragraph. Each guide opens Lazygif with the right settings.
- Feature announcementsA good launch GIF shows one thing changing, readable without sound or a click. Record it, frame it, and export it sized for where you’re posting.
X · 15 MB - Changelogs & release notesA five-second loop next to each entry says more than the paragraph above it. Keep the set consistent and the page light.
GitHub issues & PRs · 10 MB - GitHub README & PRsA demo GIF at the top of a README answers “what does this do?” before anyone reads. In a PR, it saves the reviewer a checkout.
GitHub README · 25 MB - LinkedIn GIFsLinkedIn plays GIFs uploaded as photos, including in multi-image posts. Here’s what works.
LinkedIn · 5 MB - Email GIFsVideo doesn’t play in email; GIFs mostly do. The exceptions are predictable, so design around them.
Email · ≤ 0.9 MB - Product Hunt galleryProduct Hunt recommends 1270×760 for gallery images and requires each one, GIFs included, to be under 3 MB.
Product Hunt · 3 MB - Docs & tutorialsA short loop next to each step shows exactly where to click, right where people are reading.
Notion · 5 MB - Bug reports“It doesn’t work” becomes a five-second loop of exactly what happened. Record it, blur what shouldn’t be shared, and paste it in the ticket.

Steam store page · 5 MB - Product demo GIFsA short loop of your product’s best trick plays by itself on a landing page, in an email or a launch post.
X · 15 MB - Feedback GIFs“The hover state flickers when you scroll” is hard to write and easy to show. Record it, put an arrow on it, and paste it in the comment.
GitHub issues & PRs · 10 MB - Support reply GIFsWhen the answer is “click here, then here”, show it. A short GIF plays right in the customer’s inbox.
