On the Twitter app, tap to create a new tweet

Open the Camera

Choose the option "GIF"

Let your imagination run free

Share your new GIF with your followers

Recently, Twitter has been adding loads of new features to its users, aiming to make your experience on the social media platform a better one. On top of that, Twitter has been testing loads of useful features that it will introduce at a later time to its users. For example, Twitter has been working on downvotes, a feature that's basically useful for you if you see a reply that seems irrelevant to a given conversation. The great thing about downvotes is that they are private, and won't be shared with the author of the Tweet or others in the conversation.

The downvote feature appears to be tied with the Sort Replies feature, which will let you decide whether you want to receive all replies or only the ones that are relevant, pretty much, replies from people you follow or replies that are likely to be interesting to you (based on an algorithm).

These two features are still in testing, while the GIF option should now be live on your iPhone.
