GifWidget lets you use Giphy to find gifs, and you can also use any other gif with GifWidget: just save a gif you want to use to your device and you’re all set.

We’ve optimized the app to use as little resources as possible, but you should always use the lowest suitable quality as the animation requires much more memory when a higher quality is used.
Quality guide:
– Low: best for 1x1 widgets
– Medium: best for 2x2 widgets
– High: best for 4x4 widgets
– Source: original quality, no matter how huge. Not recommended!

Please note that long animations require a lot of memory! If the animation keeps stopping or it fails to load at all, it might be too big for your device to handle. You can restart a stopped animation by tapping on the widget.

Worried about the battery life? The animation will be suspended while the screen is off, so the impact on the battery is much less than you might think.
- Added instructions for disabling battery optimization to prevent animation from stopping.
- Fixed flickering with some GIFs.
Allows an application to receive the ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED that is broadcast after the system finishes booting.
Allows an application to read from external storage.
Allows applications to open network sockets.
Allows using PowerManager WakeLocks to keep processor from sleeping or screen from dimming.
