The barn just got a tune-up! This release gives GIFBarn a solid round of polish, with smoother GIF playback, tidier navigation, quieter iCloud Sync, and a few fixes to keep everything running the way it should: • GIF playback is now smarter about what is actually visible onscreen. On iPad, changing grid sizes, scrolling, and rotating your device should keep visible GIFs happily animating instead of getting stuck on a still frame. • Using a GIF from Recents no longer makes it immediately gallop to the front of the grid. Your current view stays right where it is while you browse, copy, share, or save. The updated order appears the next time you return. • Collection navigation has been cleaned up for iPad, including a fix for duplicate action menus that could occasionally appear. Moving between Library, Favorites, Recents, Collections, and individual Collections is now more consistent. • GIFBarn's previews are silent, and now they are better neighbors too. Opening and browsing GIFBarn on iPhone or iPad will no longer unnecessarily interrupt music, podcasts, or other audio already playing. • GIFBarn Pro's optional private iCloud Sync received a major reliability tune-up. Sync work is better coordinated, unnecessary background activity has been reduced, temporary iCloud issues are handled more gracefully, and GIFBarn returns to idle when its work is finished. • Your Favorites and Collections can keep roaming between devices while Recents and Recent Searches remain local to each device. • We've also made additional reliability improvements across GIF playback, navigation, synchronization, audio behavior, and GIFBarn Pro. The barn may look familiar, but the doors swing smoother, the machinery runs quieter, and the GIFs keep on moving.

Your GIF library just got a bigger barn. COLLECTIONS HAVE LEFT THE STABLE • Create, rename, reorder, and delete your own Collections. • Add the same GIF to multiple Collections without creating duplicates. • Everyone can create one Collection. • GIFBarn Pro includes 11 ready-made starter Collections and unlocks unlimited Collections of your own. GIFBARN IS NOW IN MESSAGES With GIFBarn Pro, browse Trending, Favorites, Recents, and Collections directly inside Messages. Search without leaving the conversation, revisit Recent Searches, and insert the actual animated GIF into the message field so you can add your own text before sending. YOUR LIBRARY CAN ROAM GIFBarn Pro now includes optional private iCloud Sync for Favorites and Collections across supported Apple devices. Review local and iCloud library counts before combining different libraries, then choose to merge them or replace iCloud with the library on your current device. Recents and Recent Searches stay local to each device. A SMOOTHER RIDE AROUND THE BARN • GIF cards behave more consistently across iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Messages. • iPad Collection previews now include the same copy, share, save, favorite, drag, and related-search actions as the main GIF grid. • Animated GIF playback is better coordinated for smoother scrolling. • Library and sync information refresh more reliably. • Loading, empty, offline, and provider-unavailable messages are clearer throughout the app.
