I’ve always been annoyed that browsers autoplay GIFs and other animated images.

So I made GIF Control, a browser extension that stops animated images by default, shows the first frame, and adds a simple play/stop button directly on the image so you decide when motion starts and stops.

I built it with Codex. It’s available for Firefox, Chrome, Edge, and Opera.

Bug reports, feedback, and advice on how to make it open source are very welcome.

I’m a UX & Product Designer experimenting with building my ideas using AI. I documented the process in a YouTube video in Spanish [1].
