Adding Animated GIFs to Answers

You can add Animated GIFs from Giphy's Animated library to add more dynamic to your Multiple Choice Answer options. With just a few clicks, you can add:

• A hilarious meme
• A famous scene from a movie
• An animated celebrity or political figure
• Cartoons from famous movies (e.g. Elsa from Frozen)

To add a GIF, you can first navigate to the Experience Dashboard. Next, go to the blue Questions tab, and select the question tab of the question you would like to add GIFs on. Look for the camera icon located right underneath the Edit button to the right of each answer option.

Choosing a GIF 

Once you click on the camera icon, a blue pop-up box with a search bar and examples of animated GIFs will display. You can either choose one of the trending GIFs or search for a particular one. For this example, we are searching for general "football" GIFs to add to our trivia question.

Once you've selected your desired GIFs, they will automatically be added to the specified answer options on the Questions tab. Added GIFs will display to the left of the answer choices on the Projector View and under the question's text on the Mobile View.

Viewing Animated GIF Answers on the Projector View

Once you've successfully added your GIFs to all of the answer options, the GIFs will be displayed on the Projector View whenever that particular question is displayed. GIFs are displayed within the various answer options for your entire crowd to see.

There are also specific design touches to beautifully and uniquely present your answer images even when Show Live Answer Results (A) and Show Correct Answer (C) are enabled.

Viewing GIF Answers on the Mobile View

Your animated GIFs will also be shown on every participant's mobile device on the Mobile View of your Poll or Trivia Game.  In case you're not using the Projector View, your participants will still see the GIFs on their devices, which will be shown under the question's text.

Removing a GIF from an Answer

If you wish to change a GIF or no longer want to have a GIF on an answer option, simply remove it from the attached answer by clicking on the red Delete button with the trash icon next to the GIF in the Add GIF section. 

Removing an Answer's Label

For a true "no-hint" display, you can also remove the labels for your answer options to only show the image added to your answer. To remove an answer’s label, simply type a blank into the answer and save it!
