Has anyone else has had this problem and know how to fix it? I created a gif/animated photo on my phone and shared it, which due to the file size I sent it through email, when they opened it they did not get it animated. One person received 160 pictures, another person only 1 picture, and the other I think did a slow slideshow since it went through the animation slowly. Is there a step I am missing to be able to share these, or a way around it? I don't have much experience with gif's.
Thanks!

As long as you created it with the same file system as where you are sending it you should be able to send it ok and the other end should be able to view it. have you had any trouble sending non animated pics?
 
I haven't had any issues with regular non animated pictures. I've sent the animated photo directly from my gallery on the phone through gmail using the share button. The only way I've been able to have it work was to open it on my HP computer, it wouldn't open correctly on either an iphone, Apple laptop, HTC One or gmail through my S4.

Same here! Very very cool "gimmick" but wish it would work on other peeps phones.
 
Yeah, it won't work by email or text if I remember correctly. I spoke to another member about this and it only sends a single image.

Just upload it to your computer if possible, and do it from there....I hope that works, as I couldn't continue to find out everything that was going on with this other member, and he might be banned now.

sent with my 2 year old HTC evo3d
