This App Allows Users to Create Personalized GIFs
Katherine Pendrill — August 20, 2015 — Tech
GIPHY CAM is a new app that allows users to create personalized GIFs of friends and family. While many people choose to express themselves through words or emojis, others opt for small animated images called GIFs. Instead of browsing though all of the GIFs out there, this app gives you the opportunity to create your own.
GIPHY CAM allows users to film short snippets of themselves, their friends or their family. You can then add filters, backgrounds and different animation to these shot videos in order to turn them into personalized GIFs. Although the process may sound technical, the app provides a simple platform for turning anything into an animated image. These custom GIFs can then be shared with friends and family over text.
If you're looking for an alternative to emoji communication, personalized GIFs might be the next best thing.
