Animated GIFs are all set to become the new emoji. The flipbook style animations are commonly used on message board and forums and are becoming more and more popular on social media sites like Facebook. These apps can help you find or create your own to share with family and friends.
Giphy Cam: With a recent update, users now can create GIFs by importing photos and videos from their camera rolls, trim the clip, apply filters, text and more. Cost: Free for iOS. Find it:giphy.com/apps
DSCO:Pronounced "disco," this app lets you create short GIF animations up to 2.5 seconds long, add a filter, and then share it. DSCO will save both a GIF and MP4 video to your camera roll for each shot if you want to share it later. Cost: Free for iOS. Find it:app.adjust.com/41b35f
Boomerang: Launched in October by Instagram this video app produces GIF-style clips by taking a one-second burst of five photos. This is converted into a mini video loop which is automatically stored on the phone and can be shared to Instagram or Facebook. Cost: Free on iOS and Android.

Live GIF: If you have an iPhone 6 or 6S, you can use this app to convert your live photos into GIFs and videos. It also allows users to share the GIFs outside of iOS/Apple to Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr, or WhatsApp. Cost: 1.99 for iOS. Find it: livegif.priime.com
FEATURED APP
Picjoy: If you're tired of losing track of photos among the thousands in your picture library on your phone or computer, this app is here to help. It gathers a collection of information about each photograph such as the date, season, weather condition, holiday, possible event, nearby landmarks, etc. Once the data is analyzed and recorded, it promises that you can "find any image in seconds, regardless of where it's stored." It also has a feature that lets you create a photo journal. Cost: Free for iOS. Find it: picjoyapp.com
