How do I save an animated gif on my Iphone 5?
You should just be able to press and hold your finger on the image over the screen to save a gif picture on your phone. This is at least how it works on Android Phones.
But unlike Android phones, ios does not natively support animated gif's. On my Samsung Galaxy S4, I can simply click on the image anywhere I decide to save it, and it will animate when opened by my photo gallery. But on ios, you have to go through a bit of a processes to get it to animate. There are apps that you can install supposedly, that will allow you to view it from what I have heard. Or there's even a small yet inconvenient trick that might work. (Some people can't get it to work.)
See video on YouTube for work around:
hopefully this helps!
- Why Isn't My Weather App Animated in iOS 7? I had seen pictures and videos of the Weather App in iOS 7 animating (for example: lightning striking if there are thunderstorms or rain falling if it's raining). Mine is just a picture of clouds now, not moving. Is there any setting I need to change to get the weather animated? Please note I have the iPhone 4 so it may not get this feature?

- IOS 7 weather app not animated on iPhone 4? I downloaded the new iOS 7 earlier and am disappointed to see that the animated weather app that everyone's been talking about isn't animated on my phone. It's just still pictures. Is there a setting I have to change or are weather animations something that the iPhone 4 doesn't get?
- How to upload a GIF to tumblr from iPhone? I created a GIF on the app "5SecondsApp" and it plays fine on there. After saving it to my camera role I uploaded it to tumblr but instead of playing as a GIF it stayed as a JPEG and didn't play So I sent it to myself on iMessage because usually that is when a GIF plays and saved the one I sent to myself, uploaded that, then it still didn't play? Can someone please help me sort this out
