The classic Love is… cartoon strip brand is moving into the digital space with the launch of a new mobile app.

The StoryGIF app is now available on the Apple Store and Google Play, and allows fans to send Love is… images as customisable, text-ready animations.

Over 40 images are included in the first pack, with additional celebration-themed content for the property planned for key times of the year.

“We are so happy to bring it to life digitally to help our users express their feelings. Who said texting couldn’t be romantic?”
