How to View Animated GIFs via the Preview App on Mac
An animated GIF is a graphics file that shows a short animation. They are often used on websites and social media to add some fun and movement to a post. If you want to view an animated GIF on your Mac, you can do so using the Preview app.
To view an animated GIF in Preview, simply open the file in the app. The GIF will start playing automatically. You can control the playback of the GIF using the playback controls at the bottom of the window. You can also use the arrow keys to move through the frames of the GIF.
Importing Animated GIFs into Motion
In addition to viewing animated GIFs in Preview, you can also import them into Motion, Apple's motion graphics software. This allows you to edit the GIF and create your own animations. To import an animated GIF into Motion, simply drag and drop the file into the Motion window.
