Gifs in App
If you open the app for the first time or pull to refresh on the homescreen then you should see any uploaded homescreen banners that use gifs which are automatically animated
Tips & Tricks
- Gifs are only supported in V7, for V6 or lower the gif will appear frozen on the first frame so make sure the gif is still suitable when frozen
- For V7, gifs will only appear animated as a home screen banner and not supported elsewhere in the app
- Files should be no larger than 2mb, otherwise they will take longer to load
