In plain words

GIPHY Says is an iOS camera app that converts spoken words into animated GIFs. Users record video while speaking, and the app automatically adds text transcriptions to create looping clips ready for sharing. Designed for casual content creators and GIF enthusiasts, it simplifies the process of making text-overlaid video content by eliminating manual typing and letting users speak naturally to generate their animations.
