Google is finally launching its GIF creating an app on Android.

GIF, as we know, is a very popular way to display still images in a slideshow way. This is probably not the best definition of a GIF, but I am sure you understood what I meant. But for a more official or technical definition, a GIF is a format of displaying images as animations.

Last year, Google launched an app for iPhone and iOS users for edit their live photos, by the name Motion Stills. It helped the users to remove blur and stabilize images and share. But with the release of iOS 11, iPhone users won’t be needing this app as the new iOS offers many extended features including an app to make an animation of their photos.

The next obvious thing for Google is to use this kind of app for its own platform Android. Google has announced that it will be launching an app with the same Motion Stills technology with a few changes. It won’t have the same features as the iOS version but will still be benefitting for the users.

What will the app do?

Simply put, the app will allow users to record motion stills which are like short videos. They will be able to do on the spot editing and remove any shakiness or blur frame to make a smooth shareable GIF file. The Android version is said to have a new feature of fast forward. This will help in shrinking long videos to edit easily.

The Google team is working on the iOS version and making it better with the new streaming approach, using which you can do live editing while recording a video. They are also working on more features that will be added afterward. The app will be converting your recording instantly to shareable short video. It is an efficient app which saves time and effort and produces shareable GIF instantly with smooth and blur-free images. Google is also hinting at new features for Google photos as well.


It looks like a fun app to use and Android users can experiment with it. Users with Android 5.1 and later versions can use it. Users can play with it and make good use of it. It is available for free download at Google play store. Just search Motion Stills for Android, the app on top developed by research at Google is the one you should select. Install it and experiment with it!
