Can't send a gif in messenger Recently I've had an issue where I can search and copy a gif, but not paste it into the text box to send in Messenger. Gifs work in text and WhatsApp and everywhere else, just not Messenger. My phone has the latest software update and all apps are up to date. Have tried uninstalling and reinstalling both Messenger and the Gif app and tried turning my phone off and on again. Anyone else having this issue? What other troubleshooting can I do?

When you are in Messages, tap on the + to the left of the iMessage typing area. That opens the old app drawer and you can select the app you want. Sounds like you want #images.
