Grab the animated clip, then convert it to GIF
On Twitter and X, a GIF is stored as a short MP4 video, not a .gif file. Paste the tweet link into VidBee and it parses the animated clip so you can save the MP4. To get a true looping GIF, drop that MP4 into the browser based MP4 to GIF tool, which runs locally so the file stays on your device. You can queue several tweets at once when you need a batch of clips. Save only public posts you have the right to use.
