GIF Toaster - GIF Maker Hack 6.6 + Redeem Codes

I don't use it nearly enough, but I do love it when I do. The free version gives you plenty of features to get a feel for he capabilities and even toast up some cool GIFs. If you want full feature functionality, it's totally worth the what, $2? Love how easy it creates GIFs from anything. Especially since you can have Live Photos turn into looped GIFs, fun stuff!

Pros: easy to use, has nice free features, can make large gifs, can string two gifs together into one, doesn’t have a limit to a gif frames Cons: I use this primarily for turning my pixel art into gifs, and I don’t like that it automatically opens into video conversion instead of photo conversion. But, most damning, I’ve noticed that the app can kind of muddle colors. It gets worse the more that’s happening in the gif & the more you run it through the program (ie make it into a gif, then adding it onto another gif). It’s not the most noticeable at first, but colors will flicker between layers. For example, it turned my pink into light pink, tan into beige. On one of the objects it merged my base color and shadow, making it appear completely unshaded. It only did these things every other frame, which looked like a sloppy error on my part, but I double checked my own art & it was totally fine.

As an experiment, I ran the flickering piece through the app two more times. What should have been a single color throughout 12 frames became at least five different shades. As such I will probably not be able to use this app for making commissions, which is a shame, because I already paid for it. I will update my review if the issue is resolved.

This is definitely the best gif app available currently (trust me I’ve tried them all). I use an iPad Pro to make gifs, so can’t use photoshop and this app has been great. A few improvements would make it perfect, though. I’d love to have a way to adjust the image manually, i.e. brightness, contrast, saturation, etc., instead of just the filters. It would also be great to be able to manually set the gif size for saving. I’m constantly having to test out each image size to see how large the file will be. It would be great if you could enter it in manually, or at least get a preview of how big it will be before you convert it. And it would be great to be able to save a preset or a default, so it would import each video with your saved settings. Just a few suggestion, again this is a great app and definitely worth the upgrade to pro!

Glad to see the new updates from the developer: this is an amazing app for creating gifs. Why other apps can’t offer such flexibility around ways of creating gifs, I don’t know. Love it and use it all the time.

One suggestion: maybe make it easier to select start and stop points, especially when isolating moments from longer video files. The native photo album editing feature for trimming is maybe a good model to follow? Currently, I sometimes find it really difficult to tap precisely enough on the start and stop arrows, and end up changing something I don’t want to change.

This stands out for being functional and straightforward without hidden money-grab gotchas or ugly bugs. I’d like more differentiation in the interface (or perhaps an optional warning popup?) between “back to editing” and “back to selecting which clips to edit,” but have no other complaints.

Warning if you plan on using this app to make a photo GIF using multiple photos as is my use case for buying this app, buyer beware there is no “select all“ so in my case that means clicking 1000 pictures individually, which is definitely not going to happen. Close but not close enough, the search continues….

This app is easy to use and I created my first gif in just minutes.

Its easy to text message the gif to others and uploading to Twitter is simple.

I wish Facebook allowed gifs to be uploaded but I hear Instagram will soon allow it so hopefully Facebook isn’t far behind.

I've tried almost 20 different apps for turning photos into gifs, so far this is the only one the works. I can send the gif to my friends or copy for later. I'm currently considering buying the pro version. If you're looking for an app that works, here you go!

Absolutely awesome app, This is hands down the best GIF editor. I liked the ability to change from the built in processor from the editor, I’d possible please bring that feature back. Last, would be nice to predict GIF disk size before processing.

Making a gif is more complicated than you may think. This app was helpful in simplifying the process but it’s still a little complex. I’m enjoying the app so far. I wish a had a way to pay for the pro version up front because I always get a little nervous upgrading through the app.
