title: Display animated GIF in iOS
body: <p>I noticed that with iMessage, animated gifs can now be sent and displayed. Does this mean that Apple is now supporting the display of animated GIFs in an application, or is the easiest method still to split the image in frames and then sequentially show them? What is the easiest way to display an animated GIF as of iOS 5.1?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
