There doesn't seem to be a way to get rid of GIFs on my iPhone in iMessages now that I updated to iOS17. I want to make my phone safe for my children.
Is there an update coming or is there something I can do to fix this issue?
iPhone XR, iOS 17
Thank you so much!!!
It is a hassle- especially when school things are sometimes online. But it is much better than the alternative!
So angry at Apple right now!!!
I HIGHLY HIGHLY suggest a Pinwheel phone- amazing and very protective of kids!!
This just happened to us, apple just lost us. We’re switching to android tomorrow because of this update and inability to block gifs. So frustrating and unacceptable.
Apple, please fix this. Updated to 17.4 yesterday and still no solution. We are not able to protect our children when adult GIFs are readily available without any setting to disable.
YES. Get rid of this option it’s no different then pulling up explicit contend on YouTube!! It’s the only thing keeping my kids phone from pulling up bad images
Yes! Same here GET RID OF IT
I agree. Was already on the fence with Gabb and iPhone… please fix with an update.
How can I disable GIFs in iMessages with iOS17?
