Element-android: Add a confirmation before sending GIFs from the GIF keyboard

Created on 25 Nov 2020  路  2Comments  路  Source: vector-im/element-android

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
It was unexpected that a GIF was sent immediately when tapping on it. The user could have been scrolling through the list and accidentally tapped, or the user expected to see a larger format of the GIF and tapped on it to see.

Describe the solution you'd like
A confirmation before sending the selected GIF.

Describe alternatives you've considered
N/A

Additional context
This time it worked out in that the GIF sent was relevant to the conversation, but it equally could have been something less appropriate.

I agree, it should open the attachment pre-viewer in this case, as if you have selected an image from your gallery.
This is what WhatsApp does for the record.

Strangely the current behavior has been explicitly implemented by my past me here: a3b205b310fa10c8a82b22c2bd3cbdd348ce92f3
