Frequently asked questions

Does the timing survive the reverse?

Yes. Each frame keeps its own delay and travels with it, so a loop with a long pause on one frame still pauses there, just at the mirrored position.

How do I make a boomerang instead?

Use the ping pong tool, which appends the reversed copy to the original so the animation runs forward then back in a single loop.

Does the file size change?

Almost not at all. The same frames are written in the opposite order, so any difference comes from how well neighbouring frames compress against each other.

Will it look odd if the GIF is not symmetrical?

Motion that obeys gravity or reads left to right gives itself away when reversed. Abstract or looping motion reverses without anyone noticing.
