What is the fortune cookie GIF maker?
It makes a short animation of a fortune cookie on a wooden table. The cookie wobbles, cracks in two, and a paper fortune rises out and turns to face you. You write the fortune. It can be a wish, a joke or a message you want to deliver in a fun way. You can also put a photo on the paper instead.
How to make a fortune cookie GIF
- Write your fortune. Type a short message, up to 24 characters. Or switch to Photo and upload a picture.
- Make the GIF. It is ready in a few seconds.
- Send it. Download it or share it straight to a chat from your phone.
Ideas for your fortune
- Good wishes: “Good luck is coming”, “You will ace it”, “Big things ahead”.
- Invitations: “Dinner Friday?”, “Movie night?”, “Coffee soon?”.
- Announcements: “We are moving!”, “Baby on the way”, “I got the job”.
- Jokes: “You will eat another cookie”, “Your pizza is coming”.
- Love notes: “Still my favourite”, “You and me, always”.
Tips
- Short is better. Real fortunes are one short line. The text is set as large as the slip allows, so three to five words look biggest.
- Save the surprise. The message only appears as the cookie opens, which makes it good for reveals.
- Pair it with a heart. For something romantic, try the gift box hearts with two names.
Why a GIF?
The fun is in the crack and the reveal, and only an animation shows that. A GIF plays by itself in any chat app, so the person sees the cookie open and the message appear without tapping anything.
