Ha ha, King indeed :rofl:
@itsjustmemark You need to make sure the Gif has 25 or less Frames to it, definitely no more, and I found the best way to edit Gifs is on a free site called ezgif.com
Once you have a Gif you want to use, just add it like you would any other element on the left side of the Creator, but this time choose to add a Sequence.
Hope this info helps you :+1:

In just a few words you have the whole story . Well done @icrltd4. One thing is you can do no Opacity Tricks with sequences and look for Trigger on Wake on the bottom Bar. Trigger on Sync has issues.

Hello,
I wanted to know why there’s no animation in the GIFs I put on the watch face I made.

Post an inspectable link to the face . We can have a look . The face you have published seems to have some Action . OK so it is open for inspection . It is doing what it is supposed to do in Creator . Sequence Layers do not show in AOD . You have to run the Time machine in creator to see the sequence Moving . It should have worked on your Watch . What watch do you Have ?
