If you’re a fan of GIFs (and, wherever you fall on the political spectrum, today sure is a good day for them!), you’ll be pleased to hear that WhatsApp’s latest update finally gives users the chance to use them — provided they have an iOS device, that is.

Although still not available on Android, the update means that WhatsApp now matches iMessage, Facebook’s Messenger, and assorted other text-related messaging apps in allowing users to incorporate animated messages as part of their conversations.
To find GIFs, you can use WhatsApp’s GIF search engine, as well as sending short, 6-second videos and Live Photos in the GIF format.
To find the GIF menu, tap the + sign in the bottom left corner of the app, then hit Photo & Video Library, followed by the GIF Search button.
To Send Live Photos as animated GIFs, 3D Touch any live photo and then choose “Select as GIF” — although you’ll need an iPhone 6s or iPhone 7 if you want to use this feature.
Then you’ll be able to send Trump-related messages to your heart’s content…
