How do I use the 'File Sharing' import option?

If you have a desktop Mac, you can use the 'File Sharing' menu option to easily transfer images to GIFwrapped on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. It's the most direct way to get images from your computer to your GIFwrapped library.

Apple has an in-depth knowledge base article on how to share files with your iOS and iPadOS devices. Any files you add to GIFwrapped via Finder's file sharing will show up in the File Sharing screen available from the import menu at the top left of GIFwrapped's main screen.

What kinds of files does GIFwrapped support?

Any file of any type can be shared with GIFwrapped, and all of them will show up in the File Sharing list. However, only GIFs, PNGs, and JPEGs can be imported into GIFwrapped's library at this time. All other files will show as disabled, and selecting them will do nothing.
