Animated Gifs in Hangouts

[macleod52]

So my friends have sent me a few animated .gif files via MMS and for some reason I cannot get them to work. From what I've read hangouts is supposed to support animated .gif files. Does anyone else have this issue?

Has no one had this issue? I sent an animated .gif to my friends and it worked for both me and them; however, the ones sent to me did not work. They both have iPhones so I"m not sure if that's part of the issue.
