Everyone likes GIFs. You’ve probably shared a ton of them with your friends on Facebook and other social channels, and even wondered at times if you could easily make your own GIFs. Well, some of you might already know it, but for those who don’t, Samsung offers a dedicated camera mode so you can record moments directly as GIF files. It’s been available for Samsung devices for some time, and you can also download it on the Galaxy S8 or Galaxy S8+.
The GIF shooting mode doesn’t come installed by default, so you will have to download it in the camera app. Here’s how you can do that.
Step 1: Open the camera app, then swipe right on the screen to access the shooting modes.
Step 2: Hit the + button at the top. You’ll see a list of all downloadable camera modes for the S8 and S8+. Tap the download button next to Animated GIF.
Step 3: Once it’s installed, simply go back to the camera app. To access the GIF mode, go to the mode selection screen.
To capture GIFs, you need to hold down the camera shutter button till you’ve captured what you need. The camera app will count up to a maximum of 20, and that’s where GIF recording stops. You can’t record long GIFs, and the quality isn’t always too great, but it’s still a nice way to capture moments in moving form without using up the space a typical video would take. As with all images and videos, these GIFs can be accessed from the gallery and shared through other apps. Below is a sample so you can see what kind of quality you can expect.
You can also make GIFs from content playing on the phone from apps such as YouTube, by using the Smart Select Edge panel. For more tips and tricks on the Galaxy S8 and S8+, go here.
