You're unlikely to encounter something as explicit as the GIFs that appeared in Messages with those apps, but all this openness does mean Apple will have to take a more active role in making sure the newfound features in its OS are safe for a general audience. Siri and Maps have also been opened up to third-party developers. In addition to GIFs, Messages now features stickers and apps, though those are presumably subject to the same oversight as the iOS App Store.

It also shows the challenges Apple faces as it tries to open up iOS from the walled-off OS it's been in the past. Sending static images on iMessage has long been possible but in this article we'll be teaching you how to send animated iMessage GIFs easily in a few steps. (My search history is now a horror show, however.) That's not to say that the problem won't crop up again, though, or that Apple and Microsoft really need to tighten up the filtering on searches. I spent a few soul-crushing minutes tapping in seemingly harmless that could double as euphemisms into the GIF search tool of Messages, but didn't spot anything that would raise any eyebrows. Since Deadspin's report, "butt" and "huge" have been filtered out, too. We currently serve over 100 His bot allow you to search and see any artworks from. Messages had filters for GIFs in place - searches for assorted dirty words or terms like "sex" don't yield any results. We are the development team of EcchiBot, the best NSFW bot on Discord. (You can read the Deadspin story here, but it contains the explicit images.)

Another search for "huge" turned up something even more graphic.

Deadspin was the first to spot a very Not Safe For Work GIF that appeared when searching for "butt," featuring one of the characters from My Little Pony doing something quite explicit, especially for a children's TV program.

It's a welcome addition, if you really dig GIFs, but it apparently still needs some fine-tuning to keep out inappropriate images.
