I love gifs and I really like the way you can use them to quickly show something to someone. Wether it's your new cat, our an animation you just made. I've been looking for a simple app to share and make them with for a long time, but could never find one that was simple and not limited to one platform, so I made Instant. Hope you like it.
shout out to @dnmjd for helping me with the designs :)
@samuelbeek yes yes yes this is great, great this is now public after some testing. It could use a little clever watermark in the gif, but for now it's just great send someone a gif on iMessage and to get the response "haaha that's funny! How the heck did you do that?"
@tnsrig Thanks! Most apps are limited to one platform: Dsco is limited to Vsco's platform, Boomerang to Instagram. I wanted to create something that's not limited, so I try to integrate as many services as possible (Slack, imgur, Facebook, Twitter, iMessage, and more to come!). Next to that I wanted creation to be as quick as possible and I think I succeeded.

@samuelbeek@tnsrig I'm not saying your product isn't nice, simple and helpful... but Boomerang just to pick one isn't really limited. I can share it pretty much anywhere.
Hey, I've been searching for an app like this for a while some months ago and couldn't find anything okay. I love it but I would also like to see some new features, (and the posibility to send via facebook messenger or upload as gif to tweeter not picture). Good luck!
@silviust7 Thanks!! Intergrations, like Facebook Messenger and Upload to Tweeter are things I'm working on :). It's hard tough, because every third party app has different constraints and there's almost no documentation on it.
Nice work @samuelbeek! I've used a few others but this one is by far the easiest. Out of curiosity, how are you planning to monetize this in the long run?
@arielmichaeli He Ariel, I'm not sure if I will monetize it. I'm thinking of a library option, where you can save your old gifs to create a kind of "gif diary", making that an in App purchase would be a cool way to make some money of it. For now it's a great show off product to attract clients for my freelance gigs.
@samuelbeek I see a ton of potential around image modification. Filters (like hipstamatic did back in the day) or speeding up/slowing down the loop (like what snapchat rolled out not too long ago). I'd be happy to pay 0.99 or even 1.99 for something like that. Alternatively you can limit the number of gigs made per day to something high (like 25) and charge to unlock - that's much less fun though...
@arielmichaeli The modification thing is interesting! I wanted to include that in the app, but I thought it would add to much complexity. Offering that as a paid pro feature is a definitly worth looking into :). Thanks!
