Prepared by: Gsetsoft · Updated:

Choose a frame from your own video for a YouTube thumbnail, Instagram/Reels cover, TikTok image or Facebook post. Add a headline, logo and colours, then download PNG/JPG.

Step by step

  1. Video file — Choose MP4, WebM or MOV: up to 200 MB, 10 minutes and 3840 × 2160-equivalent pixels. Each side must be at most 3840 pixels.
  2. Pause the video or choose a frame with the time slider.
  3. Use this frame in the design
  4. Platform and output size → Create preview → Download image

Example scenario

00:02.50 → JPG → 1920 × 1080. Choose a frame from your own video for a YouTube thumbnail, Instagram/Reels cover, TikTok image or Facebook post. Add a headline, logo and colours, then download PNG/JPG.

Check your result

The transferred frame is prepared as high-quality JPG; downloading PNG cannot restore lost detail. In the second section choose platform size and framing, then create a preview. A new frame replaces the photo while keeping headline and colours. This tool does not produce videos, download social-platform videos or upload covers to your account. The browser could not read this video. Try MP4/H.264 or a supported WebM file; renaming the extension does not convert the codec.
