So far so good

U70%
by U####:

However, I cannot save gfy's or open saved gfy's from my device. This is the functionality I'm looking for.

B70%
by B####:

Opens gfycat links quickly and seamlessly. Perfect for links sent in chat apps, where launching Chrome for them takes way too long.

L70%
by L####:

Works great and loads faster. Thank you for the update! I really appreciate it!

G70%

Stopped working

U70%
by U####:

After loading the gif and trying to close it, I get an error on my galaxy S7 saying that gfycat failed to load and it recommends I use my internet app. I usually just hit the back button again and load up another gif. Please fix!

U70%
by U####:

After most gifs/gfys I get a pop-up saying that Gfycat could not display the image and it asks me to pick a browser to use instead. This occurs even when the content is displayed correctly. And there are usually 2 some time up to 10 of the messages at a time. When it works its great. I don't need to open chrome and leave the app I was i n before.

S70%
by S####:

This is exactly what I wanted for redditisfun because the built in browser crashes to much. This helps with loading gfycat or any general gifs. But I use imgur for that.

U70%
by U####:

Crashes a lot, and causes issues when used with Reddit is fun

U70%
by U####:

I'm always mindful of keeping data usage as low as possible while still having full functionality and keeping things quick; discovering this has bee a delight for mobile browsing speed and comfort.

S70%

Great app

U70%
by U####:

Never works, just endless loading

U70%
by U####:

Just continuously loads and never plays. Shows only a still image of the first frame and then a perpetually cycling loading bar along the bottom. Wish I could rate negative stars. Are those even a thing?

F70%
by F####:

It's a great app when it works. At the moment when I try to open a gif/gfy the app will start loading but then timeout and open the link in chrome instead.

U70%
by U####:

Opens Gfycat links fine, but then when closing them I get "Gfycat could not open the file" and it asks me to choose another app. Happens two times in a row. Every single time.

U70%
by U####:

Works good. Make the videos play more than 30+ fps.

A70%
by A####:

Works,but reports failure every time you exit and offers to launch another program

O70%
by O####:

Loads gif but says that it failed after I close the app and asks to open using another program. The failure notice pops up twice in a row.

U70%
by U####:

Gyfcat runs fine, opens and loads fine. However upon closing the gfy it constantly sends error message that it has failed to load, twice. It's so irritating

X70%
by X####:

Sometimes gifs hand on the first frame, most often with gfycat's own website, which is frustrating.

U70%
by U####:

It works but when the video is done and I try to press back it gives me an error saying it failed to play the file, (it did not fail)

U70%
by U####:

It has only worked on 1 gif

N70%
by N####:

Works great with any Reddit browser that supports using an external browser. Definitely worth using over the web interface.

U70%
by U####:

please add an option to download the converted video.
