How to Search and Send GIFs

How to Search and Send GIFs

aInspired lets you search for and send GIFs directly from your keyboard -- no need to switch apps.

How to Send a GIF

1. Open the keyboard in any messaging app.
2. Tap the toolbar to expand it if needed.
3. Tap the GIF icon in the toolbar.
4. Type a search term (like "happy," "thank you," or "dancing cat").
5. Browse the results and tap the GIF you want.
6. The GIF is inserted into your conversation.

Tips

• Use specific terms for better results. "Thumbs up" works better than just "yes."
• Browse trending GIFs by opening the GIF panel without typing a search term.
• GIF search works in most messaging apps that support image/GIF input (Messages, WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, etc.).

GIF Not Sending?

If a GIF doesn't appear in your conversation:

1. Check app compatibility. Some apps don't support inline GIF insertion. In those cases, the GIF may be copied to your clipboard for manual pasting.
2. Check your internet connection. GIF search requires an active connection.
3. Try a different search term. If no results appear, the term may be too specific.

Privacy

GIF search queries go through aInspired's content proxy for caching and performance. Your search terms are processed to find matching content but are not stored or linked to your account.

Availability

GIF search is available on all tiers, including the free tier. There are no daily limits on GIF searches.
