this works great! I enable this with 'Play once', and it removes the visual noise from that endlessly playing gif in someone's email signature
Really nice to not have to see animated gifs over and over and over again, especially in things like Google Chat. This is sufficiently useful that I don't understand why it's a google-supplied extension, not just a preference in Chrome itself.
The animations still play automatically on Reddit, so I only give 1 star.
It works to block GIFs, but for some reason it doesn't enable itself by default. After you install it, click on it and select the option to either play animations once, or block them entirely. It also only blocks GIFs, not animated SVG, so it gets 4 stars.
not working
Seems to work in most cases, but unfortunately doesn't work on Reddit
This is the most useful extension ever as of February 2025, Google Chrome on Windows Desktop. Use Disable All, because some animations take minutes to watch! QUESTION. How can I see other extensions from this developer?
does not stop svg here https://github.com/sharkdp/fd
Really nice, especially regarding folks who tend to post animated GIFs to Google Chat. This allows you to see the animation once, but not over and over and over again!
Works great, thank you. I can finally peacefully read this review: https://ahuffleofhorror.home.blog/2020/09/26/is-it-worth-it-hellraiser-hellseeker-2002/ Most webmaster nowadays don't have a single clue how to make a good website. Rule #1: Don't have 5000 moving images when the content of your page is meant to be read! Total fail.
Works for animated gifs. Would be nice if I could set per site.
Doesn't work anywhere you actually need it, only works for basic sites, won't block animations on reddit or imgur
does not work on discord.com
No radio buttons shown. Didn't stop NYTimes videos/animations.. If there are supposed to be options somewhere that I can set, to make this work, I didn't find them.
Did not work to stop the animation I was targeting. The site I wanted to browse has a "search" bar that plays several animations of "suggested searches" on a loop. Because the bar is pinned to the top of the page as you scroll, I could not use the website without the animation pulling my attention. This extension did not fix the issue.
The update now works for me on ChromeOS chrome. An option like "play animation once, click (or alt-click, etc) to replay" would make it better. Also animations not shown on the screen but loaded further down the page will play thru and stop so you won't see them without a reload. <old review> doesn't work. why would it? It's made by Google.
Excellent! Works great in Edge. Why isn't this a built-in option!!
Utterly pointless. Radio buttons can not be clicked: just brings up an unchanging page from giphy
I needed this, and this extension delivers! Perfect!

Seems to work OK, at least in simple cases.

To people saying it doesn't work, this works on image animation. If you are still seeing images that move, then you need NoScript. This does not block scripts. Use this with NoScript and Ad Block Plus and you are good to go!! But again to people saying this does not work, you are seeing scripts and this isn't for that type of image movements.

muy buena, me gusto xD
Does not work, even when turned on and set to "Disable all image animation". Even tried closing and restarting the browser.

Simple and effective just like I like my extensions.

Does absolutely nothing on fox news. Allow, once or never all do exactly the same thing, NOTHING!

На ютубе не работает! Вообще, никак! Эти анимации тратят мне трафик, изнашивает гаджет! Только останавливают и скрывают, но расход трафика идёт как и раньше! Нужно что-то - чтоб вообще не присылало мне в виде расхода трафика
Worked for me.

Перестало работать.
I'd give it zero start if possible. It doesn't work at all. When It's set as "disable all image animation," the images just animate as they pleased.

Работает!
It doesn't work. It doesn't disable all animations. False advertising!
