Animated GIF Recovery from Samsung Galaxy Note/S

-- Thursday, September 08, 2016
Animated GIF is a bitmap image format that can express more information than the static photos. We can get the GIF by filming with device, creating on the website or Apps, downloading from Internet or receiving via Bluetooth. We may tend to create a GIF image by Photoshop or other Apps that can work with it before Samsung launched Galaxy S7/S7 Edge. Now, we can make a GIF image directly by changing the camera mode on Samsung Galaxy S7/S7 Edge.

However, people may delete the GIF images by mistake and have no idea to get them back. Here comes to the loss of the animated GIF. Android Data Recovery, which is really effective on recovering data like contacts, messages, photos, call history and video, can be a good helper of Animated GIF Recovery.
