About This Tool

The tool accepts a video file and outputs a Live Photo-compatible bundle suitable for iOS. It creates a high‑resolution still image and a short motion clip that together form the Live Photo pair, ready for import into Photos or downstream media pipelines. The still is encoded as HEIC/JPEG, and the motion clip is a brief MOV segment.
Conceptually, the system extracts a representative frame from the video at a chosen timestamp, encodes the frame as a still image, and captures a short MOV segment beginning at the same timestamp to accompany the image. The assets are packaged in a standard Live Photo bundle (a still + motion file) and delivered as a downloadable package.
Beneficiaries include content creators, marketing teams, app developers, and media operations that require Apple-friendly assets with minimal manual steps. The tool reduces transcoding complexity, preserves image quality, and ensures consistent asset naming and packaging for easy integration into production pipelines.
Core value and features include configurable timestamp, optional audio in the motion clip, deterministic output naming, and ZIP packaging. Use cases span product demos, app previews, social campaigns, and tutorials. The tool is designed for repeatable results across teams, enabling efficient asset creation without specialized software or extensive technical knowledge.

How to Use

  1. Upload a video file (MP4/MOV) and set the timestamp for the still frame (default 0s).
  2. Optionally configure motion_duration and include_audio to tailor the MOV clip.
  3. Run the conversion to generate the HEIC/JPEG still and MOV sequence.
  4. Download the resulting ZIP or folder containing the Live Photo pair.
  5. Import the bundle into Photos to verify playback and sharing readiness.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find Quick Answers

What is a Live Photo bundle?
A Live Photo bundle consists of a still image and a short motion video that together provide motion when viewed on supported devices. This tool outputs a standard bundle (HEIC/JPEG + MOV) that can be imported into Photos on iOS and used in downstream media pipelines.
What input formats are supported?
The tool accepts common video formats such as MP4 and MOV. If the input format is unsupported, the tool returns a clear error code and suggests converting to MP4 before retrying.
Can I customize the timestamp or motion duration?
Yes. You can set the timestamp for the still image and adjust the motion clip duration. If not exposed in a basic version, these options appear in advanced workflows or via API parameters.
