GIF Brewery 3
GIF Brewery 3 is a video-to-GIF conversion and animation creation tool for macOS. It lets users import video files, extract clips, and export them as animated GIFs with customisable settings like frame rate, dimensions, colours and optimisation. The app is typically used by content creators, social media managers, designers and casual users who want to turn short video clips or screen recordings into shareable GIF animations without needing heavier video editing software.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionGIF Brewery 3 has been discontinued and is no longer supported by the developer. The app currently runs under Rosetta 2 on Apple Silicon Macs, but it will stop launching entirely when Apple removes Rosetta in macOS 28 (September 2028) — less than 28 months away. Since the developer has abandoned the project, there will be no native update. For continued GIF creation and editing, consider Gifox, a modern native Apple Silicon app available on the Mac App Store that handles video-to-GIF conversion with a streamlined interface. Alternatively, Keewordz GIF Maker and GIPHY Capture both run natively on M-series Macs. If you need more professional animation control, Blender (free, open-source, native Apple Silicon support) can also create GIFs from video, though with a steeper learning curve. Begin migrating your workflow to one of these alternatives soon, as your current app will no longer be usable after September 2028.
