How do I backup and restore my gifs?

The following only applies to those who haven't yet upgraded to Giffer v3.6.6:


There are a couple of methods available for backing up and restoring your gifs.
  1. Back up your device to iCloud or iTunes. Your gifs will be backed up along with the rest of your device's apps. After you restore your backup, your Giffer library will also be restored.
  2. Copy your gifs to your desktop using iTunes file sharing. Plug your device into your desktop, open iTunes and click on your device's icon. Click "File Sharing" on the left, then click "Giffer". Drag the "gifs" folder and the "giflibrary.archive" file to your desktop (or wherever you want to back them up). Restore your Giffer library by clicking "Giffer" under "File Sharing" and simply drag the "gifs" folder and the  "giflibrary.archive" file from your desktop (or wherever you backed them up) into the same file list area that you dragged them out of.
Of course just to be on the safe side, you could always back up your gifs using both of these methods.
