GIFs on Speakap

They say a picture says more than a thousand words, right? So imagine how well you can express yourself with a GIF! This is why Speakap supports playable GIFs for your updates and comments. 

Adding a GIF

Adding a GIF is quite simple with our GIPHY integration! When you go to compose an update or a comment, you'll see a GIF option alongside the attachments. 

Select it, and look for the GIF that best captures your message! You can either pick from the most popular GIFs that immediately pop up, or look for more specific ones by typing into the GIPHY integration search bar. 

You can also add GIFs from Tenor by linking them in the update or comment: 

  • Find a GIF you like on the Tenor website
    We’re not judging, but cats always do well on the internet...
  • Copy the link to the GIF
    Most common websites offer a share option that allows you to copy the URL
  • Past the link in your update or comment
    You will see that we add the GIF to your message automatically
  • Submit and enjoy!
    See how those likes are pouring in? Must be your GIF!
