GIPHY interaction | Concept

👋Hello, guys!
This weekend I've played with the GIPHY app and thought that
a lot of gifs playing in the same time could be annoying for some people and decided to do something with that.

❗️I want to point that I haven't any data to make a data-driven decision, so, it's just a concept of my personal feelings.

⚠️Note:
Yes, GIPHY app have a function that pauses all gifs... But, GIPHY isn't about static, right?
And, yes, user can tap on the static image and go to the gif page.

I decided to apply a "long press" interaction like in the native iOS photos app and Instagram. This interaction allow users to stay in the context (exploring gifs) and preview gifs in the way much faster than going back and forth between pages.

🤔Things to improve:
Interaction could be much useful if the sharing options will be available while user preview the gif.

All images belongs to the ❤️ @GIPHY team.
Have a nice week!🤘
