Facebook is testing a GIF creator in the camera section of the iOS app. The feature has already rolled out to some users …
TNW discovered it this morning. GIFs can also be combined with existing effects available in the Facebook camera.
Facebook frequently tests new features by rolling them out to a subset of its users, so there’s no way to know whether or when this might be rolled out more widely.
If you have it, you’ll see a Normal/GIF tab at the top of the screen when you tap the camera icon in the app.
You can, of course, already use ready-made GIFs in iMessages using the built-in option or third-party apps.
