Is anyone else having issues saving .GIF files to your phone? When I go to view it under albums, its just a still picture with no animation.

i've never even though to download a gif... that is indeed strange, i cant view them either if i save it. i've got the lumia 920.

now that i think about it though, i think that with windows picture viewer it also doesnt 'play' the gif, you always had to open it in IE or a browser, even though its not hosted on the internet.

.gifs need to die and be buried with the 1990's...

.GIFs are important to comedy on the internet and keeping me happy.

I do not know of a way for this but I hope it is added/fixed.

The picture app on Windows 8 (RT) plays gifs fine so I see no reason why it doesn't work on Windows Phone 8.
