Twitter is adding a button on iOS, Android and the Web so you can search for GIFs by keyword and insert them into tweets and direct messages with a single tap.

Fortunately for Twitter, the GIF button has earned them some rare praise. The new feature is currently being tested on a small group of users.

A number of Twitter users are tweeting that they’ve spotted a dedicated GIF button on the platform’s mobile app. Many of the tweets regarding the feature appropriately also contain GIFs.

It could even add to the confusion. Animated GIFs alone won't save Twitter's dwindling stock price. But they're a heck of a lot of fun, and that might be just what Twitter needs right now.

Twitter users reported to have seen a dedicated GIF button on Twitter's mobile app. The social networking service may be testing the feature, which has now disappeared from apps.

The button will enable users to find and post GIFs from sites likes Giphy and Tenor. GIF or Graphic Interchange Format is a bitmap format developed by Steve Wilhite exactly 30 years ago.
