Reliable and easy to use
Basically point and shoot and the app identifies the sequential pictures and sets everything up.
Can’t be simpler.

Subscription app for GIFs
Easy and Funcional! Great user UI
Good
Clunky limiting UI with no instructions
A few specifics:
• Photo access: The app constantly nags me to allow full library access.
• Text editor: Adding text was hit or miss. Sometimes it’d show two lines, then collapse to one line that ran off the edge of the gif. And if I changed the font, left the editor, and came back, the font change stuck, but the selector still showed the default font name. Confusing.
• Settings view: When adjusting saturation, hue, etc., the window was so small I could only see two settings at a time.
• Video-to-gif frame rate: I tried to cut a 2-minute video down to a short gif, and it looks like the app dropped it to about 1 frame per second. I trimmed to the last 10 seconds and ended up with 9 frames total.
Momento seems built more around auto-generating gifs (“Momentos”) from your existing photo library, and maybe it’s good at that. But that’s a narrow use case, and it doesn’t count for much when actually editing a gif is this much of a pain.
Amazing app
Not the best
One of the Best!
Momento is the real deal! Easy, affordable and does what it says. I have been able to create some really great digital assets. Also LOVE that they continue to update the app as all there new social media platforms pop up.
Still one of my absolute favs!
