Use a frame as a thumbnail
A thumbnail is usually a still frame that represents the video. This tool lets you choose the second to capture.
Best settings and limits
Best first try
Start with 0 seconds for the opening frame. Try later seconds if the first frame is blank or blurry.
When this may fail
The output is a PNG frame, not a resized thumbnail pack. Resize it later if a platform requires exact dimensions.
Privacy boundary
The selected video file stays on your device while the tool creates the output.
