I can't put gifs on my iphone?

I made a gif on my pc and made a folder for the pictures I want synced to my iphone, connected it to iTunes, and put the gif in my phone's photos. But when I go to my photos on my iphone The gif isn't animated. It's like the gif got converted to a jpeg or something when the phone was syncing. Anybody know how to upload a gif photo to an iphone?

Added (1). And check that out I solved my own problem. For anybody else who searches this: email the gif to yourself then save the image from there.

You need to be jailbroke and install giffy from cydia for gifs to work on a iphone

It is impossible on iOS to have gifs in your photo album unless you have a jailbroken phone with the Giffy tweak. With the Giffy tweak sadly you can't upload or send gifs to websites or to other people.

  • Why don't GIFS show up on my iphone? So i have an iphone 3G and i have it updated to the latest version but, whenever i'm on my tumblr app or my weheartit app the gifs on my phone don't show. Why is it like this? I have had the apps updated as well.
  • What is a good app to store/categorize gifs? I have an iphone, a macbook, and a microsoft surface. I'm looking for a cloud based app that I can access from each of these devices (or at least the apple products). The topper would be if I could easily export gifs into text messages from this app. So far I've just tried dropbox. Unsatisfied with the interface and storage fees. Any advice appreciated!
