When your animation preview is ready:

1. Click **Export GIF** in the toolbar.
2. TinyImage will process frames and render the final file.
3. The `.gif` file download will start automatically when rendering is complete.

> **Info:** Exports with many frames or large dimensions can take longer to finish rendering.
