Did we lose you at APNG? The good news is, it’s even easier to make GIFs if you’re a LINE user – just make sure you have the latest version of LINE, then…
1 Open the in-app camera and ensure the GIF button is selected.
2 Tap and hold the button below to take a photo.
3 Once done, you have the option to adjust the speed or have it play in reverse, slow motion, a square format, and so on.
