Finding and sending GIFs has never been easier, but GBoard's latest update has taken things one step further.

If you're an iOS user, the Google keyboard app now has a simplified way to create your own GIFs because the more looped images the world has, the better.

According to The Verge, the app already had the GIF-making capabilities, but the feature's new home (it's the camera icon featuring an infinity sign, located right next to the suggested words) is less hidden. Not only does this make sending fun GIFs incredibly effortless, it also upgrades the process with a "fast-forward" feature that speeds up video.

The feature has yet to be introduced on Android phones yet, but if you're on an iPhone you're just a quick copy and paste away from GIF domination.
