Will converting MOV to GIF reduce quality?

Can I convert multiple MOV files to GIF at once?

Yes. Add as many MOV files as you like; they are converted in parallel on your device and you can download them all as a single ZIP.

Is it free? Are there limits?

It is free, with no sign-up, no watermark and no daily limits. Because nothing is uploaded there is no upload size limit either; the only limit is your device’s memory, which matters mostly for very large videos.
