Answer 1

Android does not support animated GIFs much. You can use an AnimationDrawable, perhaps defined from frames using a drawable XML file.

Answer 2

you can do it by using GIF image in your app as Splash screen. Android does not support animated GIFs. so extract gif to png pictures with gif2png and it works with XML. And Other Option Adding gif image in an ImageView in android Adding gif image in an ImageView in android

Answer 3

100 % Work...

1) Add Glide library dependency...

   compile 'com.github.bumptech.glide:glide:4.2.0'

2)

   imageView = findViewById(R.id.gifImage);

3)

 Glide.with(getApplicationContext())
            .asGif()
            .load(R.drawable.gifImage)
            .into(imageView);

just use .asGif() before .load()
