I closed the window as quickly as I could and immediately uninstalled the app. No one should use this thing until they turn off video ads. ### 1/5 — Turrible *2026-04-28* Cannot get through a gif without an ad **Developer response:** Hey Mattchbox 🎉 Great news — Update 1.7 is now LIVE on the App Store! We've significantly reduced ads, especially the ones interrupting your search. Please update and give us another shot — we really listened and made it right. Thank you for sticking with us! 💛 ### 1/5 — Bro??? *2026-04-24* Adds everywhere **Developer response:** Update 1.7 is now LIVE 🎉 We heard you loud and clear — ads are way down, the keyboard is way smoother. Please update from the App Store and give us another shot. We really fixed it! 💛 ### 1/5 — Used to be great *2026-04-19* This used to be an amazing gif keyboard. Great gifs, zero ads. But with this new update, there are ads everywhere. Quite literally, if you type 3 letters into the search bar, it gives you an ad. Such a shame to see this once great app turn to garbage. **Developer response:** Hi Kaelj44 — we have great news! Update 1.7 is now LIVE 🎉 We dramatically cut ad frequency — no more ads after typing 3 letters, real breathing room between GIFs, and a much cleaner experience. Your honest feedback drove this change. Please update from the App Store and let us know if we got it right this time. Thank you for not giving up on us 🙏💛 ### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work! *2026-04-02* I downloaded the app and enabled full access for the keyboard. It doesn’t work. You can’t type in the GIF search bar. My phone is on the latest iOS (26.4). I’ve rebooted and even reinstalled the app. Same thing. Sucks!!! Hence the 1 star review. **Developer response:** Hi! Sorry the search bar wasn't working for you. You're on Version 1.2 — the latest is 1.7 with major stability fixes for keyboard input on iOS 26+ and faster GIF loading. Please update from the App Store and the issue should be gone. If it still happens, write us through in-app support and we'll investigate right away. 🙏 ### 1/5 — What is this *2026-03-15* Bruh ts don’t work it kicks me out when I try to send and I can’t do it directly from messages **Developer response:** Hey! Sorry the keyboard was crashing on you when sending. You're on Version 1.2 — the latest is 1.7 with major stability fixes for direct sharing from Messages. Please update from the App Store and try again. If it still kicks you out, let us know through in-app support. 🙏 ### 1/5 — Nooo *2026-02-06* No me deja enviar le cosa a mis amigas **Developer response:** ¡Hola! 🙏 Sentimos mucho que no pudieras enviar GIFs a tus amigas. Estás en la Versión 1.2 — la más reciente es la 1.7 con correcciones importantes para enviar GIFs directamente desde Mensajes y otras apps de chat. Por favor actualiza desde la App Store y prueba de nuevo. ¡Cuéntanos si todo funciona después! 💛 ### 1/5 — Hate this *2025-10-28* Hate this **Developer response:** Sorry to hear that 😔 We’re actively improving the app and recently released updates to fix issues and improve performance. If you give the latest version a try, we’d appreciate your feedback. ### 1/5 — It isn’t even working *2025-08-22* Why is my app not working!!??! I am literally on WiFi and everything! It says failed to load gifs. **Developer response:** Hi Sofia, Sorry for the trouble! 🌟 It sounds like the GIFs failed to load because the app couldn’t connect to our servers even though your Wi-Fi is on. Here are a few quick checks: • Make sure you have the latest version of the app from the App Store. • Try switching between Wi-Fi and mobile data to refresh the connection. • Open the app again after force-quitting it. If it still doesn’t work, please email us at info@aswapps.com with any screenshots or details and we’ll help you right away. Thanks for letting us know—we want to fix this for you as fast as possible! 🙏 ### 2/5 — Crazy 😡😡 *2025-11-23* The point of it is to send gifts through text right? well it doesn’t work or at least for me it does it **Developer response:** Sorry about the experience 😕 Please make sure Full Access is enabled for the keyboard (Settings → General → Keyboard → Keyboards → GIF Keyboard → Allow Full Access). This is required to copy and paste GIFs correctly. We’ve also improved reliability in the latest update — please try version 1.2 and let us know if the issue persists. ## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — It’s great *2026-07-04* Its great it’s just can you please just let us like search a meme or something **Developer response:** Thanks so much for the kind words! 🙏 And great suggestion — a search feature for memes and GIFs is exactly the kind of thing we want to get right, so we've passed it straight to the team.
