So annoying. ### 2/5 — Simple, Fast, Needs improvement! *2016-03-19* After trying several apps in this category, I found Gifit a simple, reliable GIF making app allowing me to quickly and easily convert my videos into animated gifs. The interface is designed uncluttered and lets you get the job done in just a couple of taps. Please also note that the camera roll doesn't render animated gifs and shows just a still image but when you share it through a compatible app, such as iMessage or Twitter, the animation cranks up. However, Gifit crashes everytime I take a go at converting a rather long video (i.e. a 45 seconds video). I hope to see a fix as it takes too much time to convert and then it jumps to the home screen surprisingly. One more annoying problem that should be fixed is that it zooms in the video, making the animated GIF useless in some cases! ### 1/5 — MADE MY PHONE CRASH *2015-07-31* After waiting 5 minutes for it to load it made my 6plus crash wish I could give zero stars ### 3/5 — Happy and disappointed *2015-07-30* I am very happy that I can just film something (instead of taking a bunch of photos) and make the GIF that way, however I was saddened to discover that the GIF didn't move at all when I looked at it in my photo album. That, and it wasn't saved in the app itself. Nonetheless, this is a pretty good app ### 5/5 — Great App! *2015-07-26* Perfect functionality. Finally, found an app that turns videos and photos into GIF's. Thanks ### 1/5 — It doesn't even work for me. *2015-07-01* I have a perfectly good iPad, and all my other apps work just fine— this, too, seemed like it worked fine. That is, until I tried to save my gif. It keeps crashing, and it renders the app useless. I would give it no stars if I could. ### 4/5 — Works great *2015-06-28* It works great for making vids into gifs! I just wish the text could be smaller ### 3/5 — Good interface. Video only. A little slow. *2015-03-16* Really liked the look and interface of the app. It's simple and similar to the iPhone's trimming tools; an easy slider on a filmstrip. It was a tad slow and heated up my 5s—which has been admittedly acting up. Only a few seconds though, worth the wait. I would like to try it on an iPhone 6. I will definitely try the app again when I upgrade. It's video only, would be nice if it did photos. ### 2/5 — Meh. *2015-02-05* Slow. Seriously slow. Unreasonably slow. The worst offense, though, is that there's only one font choice and the size is huge so if you want to type more than one word it obscures the gif you just waited way too long to design. ### 1/5 — Kenny *2015-02-04* Slow my phone down then locked it up. Can't say that I would tell anyone about this app ## Frequently asked questions about Gifit ### How do I create a GIF with Gifit?
