does anybody know any library or tools to show a animated gif which comes from a changing URL on IOS7 devices? I'm searching for a better performance solution than UIWebView.

Maybe some code which explodes the frames into separate images.

  • I already searched for that as well. But none of these solutions work well for me. The most are using local gif files and not from online resources. – Michael Mar 27 '14 at 08:58
  • Check out the second library, it has this method +(void)loadGIFFrom:(NSString *)url to:(UIImageView *)imageView; which accepts a url. I did not personally check it out, could you give it a shot? – aksh1t Mar 27 '14 at 09:01
  • Amazing!!! Thank you!! This is exactly what I was searching for!! I tried to find something for ages! – Michael Mar 27 '14 at 09:20
  • I'd add https://github.com/Flipboard/FLAnimatedImage as a performant open source animated GIF engine for iOS to the list. – Raphael Schaad Aug 08 '14 at 05:18
