About
Not every GIF should loop forever. Maybe your tutorial animation only needs to play once, or your product demo looks better with three repeats. This tool lets you set the exact loop count so the animation behaves the way you want — whether that's a single play, a handful of repeats, or infinite looping.
Features
Set any loop count you need, from a single play all the way up to 65535 repeats
Infinite looping is just one click away — the standard behavior for web GIFs
Perfect for presentations and emails where you want the animation to play once and stop
Your frames, timing, and image quality stay exactly the same

Pro Tips
For step-by-step tutorials, a loop count of 1 keeps the viewer focused without distraction
Social media posts generally look best with infinite looping turned on
Some older image viewers ignore the loop count, so test in a browser to be sure it works as expected
FAQ
A value of 0 means the GIF loops forever. This is the default for most GIFs on the web.
Some viewers ignore the loop count and always loop. This is a viewer limitation, not a file issue.
No. Loop count is a tiny metadata field — changing it has virtually no effect on file size.
