'Selfie GIFs' might be on the way for Android in Google Messages

The feature had to be enabled during a code deep dive and showed that users could get into things by long-pressing the camera icon in Messages. Users will be able to see both phone numbers within Messages' RCS chat settings, however, it's not functioning properly as Google likely needs to flip a server-side switch.
