Rakuten Viber, one of the world’s leading apps for free and easy communication, launched its GIF creator feature, enabling its users to create fun GIFs to send to their friends and family.
As the demand for instant messaging rises globally, Viber’s new GIF feature is a fitting addition to the group video call feature it released last month, as well as group chats for up to 250 people and group voice calls for up to 20 people.
The new GIF creator has been launched on iOS and Android will follow in the next weeks.
In any chat, Viber’s users can record a short video with the app’s new camera, or select a video from their gallery, and turn it into a legendary looping GIF in boomerang, fast play, or reverse modes.
“Especially during these times, Viber is committed to empowering users to express themselves in various ways as they communicate over instant messages. As we like to say at Viber, if an emoji is used to replace a word, GIFs and stickers can replace an entire sentence - and now with our custom GIFs - users can express themselves more accurately and do it in a more funny way.” said Ofir Eyal, COO of Rakuten Viber.
At Rakuten Viber, we connect people. No matter who they are, or where they are from. Our global user base has access to a range of features like one-on-one chats, video calls, group messaging, and updates and discussions with their favorite brands and celebrities.
