You can enhance your content by adding animated GIFs, and even better—NoviSign Studio supports Giphy!

Giphy is a massive online library of free animated GIFs and stickers (you might recognize it from apps like WhatsApp). With this integration, you can not only browse and choose GIFs from Giphy’s collection, but also create your own animated text GIFs directly in the Studio.

Note: This feature is supported on:

  • Android player app v5.0.65 and above

  • Windows player v5.0.9 and above

Accessing the Giphy Library
  1. In the Media Center, scroll to the “Stock Libraries” section and select Giphy.
