1If you want to display an animated gif in your app, I suggest [googling for it](https://www.google.com/search?q=android+animated+gif&oq=android+animated&aqs=chrome.1.69i57j0l3.8734j0j4&client=ms-android-verizon&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8#xxri=4). – Code-Apprentice May 14 '17 at 15:44

1You either need to find a library that will do this or learn about the gif format and write your own. – Code-Apprentice May 14 '17 at 15:58
