Love it or hate it, Twitter is a super popular social media app with over 200 million active users, and it is a great app to have on your iPhone. However, while you've been able to tweet GIFs on Twitter for quite some time now, you've never been able to create GIFS on the bird app until now.
If your favorite iPhone has the official Twitter app installed, you can use the camera to film and create GIFs to tweet out as you please. It's a new feature from Twitter, and for GIF enthusiasts like myself, it's pretty exciting. Here's how to make GIFs on Twitter with your iPhone camera.

There you have it; your very own original GIF of whatever you recorded. Remember, once you hit record, you only have a few seconds, so make sure you're ready to can the action you want.
Only on iOS right now
Currently, the new feature is only on iOS, and Twitter hasn't said if or when the feature will come to Android. The feature also doesn't work on iPadOS. Sorry all your iPad Tweeters, you'll have to wait for now.
