Repeat a video as many times as you like, extend it to an exact length such as 30 seconds or 10 minutes, or turn a short clip into a forward-and-back boomerang. You can loop the whole video or just one part, watch the loop play before saving, and nothing is uploaded.

How to use the Video Looper
Choose a video by dropping it on the box or clicking to browse.
Pick the part to loop. Leave the whole video selected, or type a start and end (or play the preview and press Set to now).
Choose how long: a number of loops, or a target length such as 1 minute.
Tick Boomerang if you want the clip to play forward and then backward.
Press play to watch the loop preview, then press Create looped video.
Press Download video when it's done.
How the output length is calculated
With Number of loops, the output length is simply the loop part's length × the number of loops. A 4.5 second part repeated 4 times gives 18 seconds.
With Target length, the tool fits as many whole passes as possible and cuts the last one: whole passes = floor(target ÷ part length), and the remainder is the start of one more pass. A 7 second clip extended to 30 seconds plays 4 whole times (28 s) plus the first 2 seconds again.
A boomerang cycle plays the part forward and then backward, so one cycle lasts about twice the part length. Three cycles of a 2 second clip give roughly 12 seconds.
Tips for a smooth loop
Choose a part where the first and last frames look alike, for example a full turn of a wheel, a wave, or a person returning to the same pose. The jump back will then be hard to notice.
Short, simple motions (1 to 4 seconds) make the best boomerangs. Fast camera moves look jerky when reversed.
Music rarely loops cleanly at an arbitrary point. If the sound jumps, untick Keep the original sound or choose a loop that matches the beat.
Open the video, keep Number of loops selected and choose how many times it should play, for example 3×. Press Create looped video. The result is a single file in which the clip plays three times in a row, so it loops on any player or website, even those without a repeat button.
How do I make a video exactly 30 seconds or 1 minute long?
Switch to Target length and enter the length you need, for example 30 or 1:00. The clip is repeated as many whole times as fit and the last pass is cut at the exact length.
What is a boomerang video?
A boomerang plays a short clip forward and then backward, so the motion bounces back and forth smoothly. It works best with 1 to 4 seconds of simple motion, such as a jump, a splash or a toast. Boomerangs are saved without sound, because reversed audio sounds odd.
Can I loop just one part of a video?
Yes. Enter a start and end time, or play the preview, pause at the right moment and press Set to now. The highlighted part of the timeline is what gets repeated, and the preview loops only that part.
Why does the export take as long as the final video?
Browsers record video in real time with the MediaRecorder API, so a 2 minute output takes about 2 minutes to make. Keep the tab open and visible while it records. For background loops on a screen or website, a shorter file set to repeat in the player is often enough.
Will there be a pause or jump at each loop point?
Recording is paused while the video jumps back to the start of the loop, so no frozen frames are added. Whether the join looks seamless depends on the content: footage where the first and last frames are similar loops best.
Is my video uploaded?
No. The video is processed by your own browser and never leaves your device.
