Good afternoon everyone. First post here, mostly spend my time on car forums. I got a Galaxy S4 from ATT a few months ago. I love this phone, love everything about it except I now have one little problem, I can rarely ever send GIFs that I have saved/downloaded from websites through text messages. certain GIFs I can send, but most of them I can't and I can not figure out why. I usually get a message that says "File size to large" so I tried using a different messaging app, but if my friends get the file its just a picture and not the GIF file. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I can't seem to get them to work either. I can only think that messaging apps don't support gifs.

The thing that bugs me most is I can only send certain gifs, and I can receive them. A running joke with my softball team is to see who sends the best gif in the group text and I'm lacking haha

Hmmm then I guess I was wrong about gif support. Never really sent gifs and I tried to send one i made with the camera but that didn't work.
