Stop searching for the same GIFs again and again. Build Collections for work, family, game day, group chats, and every mood in between, so the right reaction is always easy to find.

  • Create, rename, reorder, and delete Collections anytime.
  • Keep the same GIF in more than one Collection without making duplicates.
  • Add GIFs to Collections right from the action menu.

Start with one Collection. Upgrade to GIFBarn Pro to unlock 11 ready-made Collections, plus unlimited Collections of your own.

GIFBarn is now in Messages

Find it. Insert it. Keep talking.

Browse Trending, Favorites, Recents, and Collections, search inside Messages, or revisit a recent search. GIFBarn inserts the actual animated GIF—not a video preview, thumbnail, still image, or provider link—and leaves it in the compose field so you can add a message.

Requires GIFBarn Pro. GIFBarn is a Messages extension, not a keyboard, and it never sends automatically.

Private iCloud Sync

Your library can roam. Your Recents stay local.

Keep your Favorites and Collections in sync across Mac, iPhone, and iPad through your private iCloud account. Recents and Recent Searches stay on the device where you used them.

Merge Libraries Review both libraries, then combine them without losing either one.
Replace iCloud with This Device Use the library on this device as your new iCloud copy.

Your library stays lightweight and private. GIFBarn syncs library information through iCloud, not an uploaded archive of GIF files. Sync only turns on when you choose it, and no GIFBarn account is required.

One purchase. The whole barn.

GIFBarn Pro is a one-time purchase that unlocks 11 ready-made starter Collections, unlimited Collections of your own, optional private iCloud Sync, and GIFBarn in Messages. No subscription. No disappearing library. One purchase, forever.
