2024-12-14 | Xeylo | Rating 5 because your reply to one of the 1 star reviews made me laugh. However, I use a program to turn gifs into ascii gifs, and then I can only manage to play them on websites. This app unfortunately didn't manage to run them :( | |
2024-12-10 | Khaled Akbar | I'll purchase if the videos ,gif,pictures plying in random can be set as live wallpaper even if the price doubles and the screen the same cut playing in random then set live wallpaper | |
2024-10-27 | Rob | Confusing and intrusive. Function is confusing and it keeps repeatedly demanding more access than it really needs. Just want something to make the GIFS play as gifs instead of still images, don't need a lot of drama...despite being called "gif player", if this app can actually do that simple task, you'd need a tech degree to know it. | |
2024-01-10 | TMM | This app produces junk gif files. For example, I set the frame duration to 40 and the last frame of the produced gif is 80 (glitchy). Gifs are produced with the setting to only play once and not repeat forever. These two issues make this app useless/broken. I INFORMED DEVELOPER VIA EMAIL MONTHS AGO AND THEY DON'T FIX ANYTHING. It's been several months. Developer abandoned the app? Now I discover that the developer has a new app that mirrors this one with a blue font logo for $10 (WTH?). | |
2023-10-30 | First Name | Best app so far. It can loop videos, ping pong gif play back, and even play gifs from inside webp files. Issue: In slide mode 4K images couse a rotating loading circle in the middle of the screen so in the middle of the image. Should have been in the corner somewhere or not at all. I do not even notice the longer loading time. But the loading circle gets into the face. Suggestion: Cross fade slide stransition without that black blink that emulates physical slider projectors. | |
2023-09-23 | Don Diego | Great app, I use it to view .mp4 files, .gif and .webp. However, some issues here: 1. After paying the Premium subscription, it was no confirmed, and no changes have been made 2. is there a way to convert .webp to .gif using OmniGIF ? Thank you. | |
2023-09-15 | ASL 97 | still one of the best gif player available, you can choose to not give it any permission and block internet access and open gif via a trusted file manager. it still do have the annoying X button for the ad space despite ads not being able to load though. while I could use something like ffmpeg to convert gif to a proper video format, sometimes it just easier with this. | |
2023-07-19 | Jazz Martian | This app behaves like malware! Avoid! I inadvertently tapped on "Help", as the UI was unresponsive, and an obnoxious AI voice started giving out tips. This continued, even after I closed the app. Also, at the same time, the app launched YouTube, and unrelated videos started downloading, one after another. I was just glad I was able to uninstall it. | |
2022-11-01 | A | Is there seriously no "save as" function here? Is there no way to convert a webp to a gif? The app says nothing anywhere about what features are unlocked with premium. And furthermore, when I try to select an app to browse images from when I am on a website, Omni gif just doesn't show up. So this makes the app *effectively isolated* from the rest of your phone in every way. Because even when I share a gif to Google photos, It just doesn't show up. Poof. | |
2022-10-02 | Dan Corkery | Really good app..love the UI.. it's really easy to use and gives excellent results. One thing I'd like to suggest for future development is the expansion of the rotate feature, so the user can increase the rotation by incremental degrees..up or down, as the current set angles are somewhat limited. Other than that I think this app is a real keeper and well worth paying for.. either going with the subscription or once off option. |
